Something Different

[Stephen Borud]

Built this little 38 Calibre Cannon last week. Shoots like a dream with 40 grains of FFG black and a .380 Round ball.

I was thinking a 54 calibre Dean.

Looks good! How's it groupin'?? Shoot sharp, Mike

[Stephen Borud]

It actually did well. We didn't pay to much attention on where we placed it after every shot except some place kinda where it was, but we shot it at about 20 feet from the target and we had a 2-3" group.

Thanks

[Mike]

That sounds cool! I wish I could do as well...

That looks good Stephen. Now make one big enough for a golf ball.

This is something I have had in mind for several years. I have collected 7 five gallon buckets full of range brass I been collecting for a while and some day I will finish my gas fired Kiln I been working on now and then to melt that brass down and make a green sand mould and pour a cannon large enough for a golf ball.

A friend of mine holding the finished cannon and another tube I have rough cut.

Kurt that would be a very interesting project.
