but 28" barrels, 15Ibs..sounds cumbersome.

I dunno, 15lbs for a charge of 100grs. Cordite and a 750 gr. bullet sounds good to me.

The 28in. barrels would give it the same overall length of a magnum mauser with a 25" barrel or so. So maybe not as cumbersome as it seems. Westley seemed to like long barrels in those days.
