Re: BUILDING THE CANNON ..............
I managed to test fire the beast today...........we found some water in the Marais and just got 2 shots in before some jobsworth came up and complained we were shooting lead into the water and he, as a wildfowler had to use steel shot I don't think so.............
Anyway, the upshot was - sorry! - a 55 grain load of FFG behind a .69" 482 grain ball shoots it about 70 meters Video to follow when I can work out how to edit it

Very cool, Duncan. Looks like fun. Now all you need to do is anchor the model ship you built, out
there in the water and you have a target............
