Re: G.E. Lewis 8 Bore…the "Clobber Pipe"

Quote:

Damb that must be an impressive muzzle. What bore diameter is an 8-bore in inches?



The “8 Bore” rifles groove-groove varied from .835” (paper case cartridge) to .875” (thin all brass case).
So basically 7/8”
This Lewis measures .855” in the grooves.

The 4 Bore measured variously right about 1”
