Didn't mean to slam the work YOU did, HM, you obviously did your reaserch and then some.

Me, I never fired a live round, and never want to! Stricktly blanks for Faires and Festivals here.

Still, "The more Complete Cannoneer" is a must read for anyone firing black powder cannon, blanks or otherwise.

Good luck with 'em Mate

For Sub Scale and modern replicas theres alot of rules ., and Switlick is coming out with an updated book which I am sure will cover them. Switlik doesnt cover the breach., I'm sure thats NSSA . Casting solves the trunnion problem., but it too then opens up a whole new can of worms. For example you should pour vertical not horizontal.., but then the barrel should be sleeved., I am still learning too. Sorry.

I am not Lost .,I am Exploring.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help....

I'm a pirate, love. By nature and by choice!

My inner voice sometimes has an accent!

My wont? A delicious rip in time...
