On the ballistics of a 3" brass case with 12ga/.729 bullets....nobody done this yet? Modern full nitro job.

Surely easily made from a shotgun?

Must'nt be loaded too high though!!!!!!!!!!

Very interesting...

Thinking of the Westley Richards Super magnum Explora with 2 3/4" case, I believe you should be able to duplicate that one with eeeeez.
A 750 grain leadbullet @ 15-1600 Ft/sec would be realistic.




Are you thinking a fully rifled gun, smoothbore or a paradox? In a fully rifled version, isn't that what they are doing in the 12 gauge from hell posts?
