Re: 10 Bore fully rifled DR

Thanks guys.......

I have now since started this thread looked in different books about the 10 bore rifle. When it started its carrier it was a rather puny caliber...900 Ft/sec with a round ball....Boddington in his book states about 1550 Ft/sec with a 845 grain bullet which isn`t so bad!!. Burrard in his book states the same in Notes on sporting rifles (1920).
I really don`t need a doublerifle, but always thought it could be funny to shoot them so why not get all the fun out it and get a really bigbore..haha

I believe I`LL call George tomorrow and talk some more about that particular 10 bore...

How much is a dram of powder approx??
