There has been at least a couple of threads on NE over the years on the big bore rifles, double rifles etc issued to troops during WW1. As was mentioned on these threads , as above, one of the purposes was the idea these rifles could be used as anti-bunker rifles in the trenches. Will have to do a search and see if the threads can be re-discovered.
That would be very nice of you. I remember reading somewhere that elephant rifles with solid bullets were used as anti-tank weapons, don't know if that's true or not, and guess the topic was covered in the threads.
