    golf ball mortar build...help needed

    I haven't shot any of my mortars for a while but if I remember right pyrodex isnt going to be very impressive, think I tried it once. 100 yds might be hard to come by with it. Pictures of your build would be good.

    Are these barrels decent/safe?

    Maybe I just got lucky but mine shoots straight as you could ask for. If you are new to cannons do some research, check out a couple of the cannon forums and different websites, theres a ton of good information available. Personally I feel safe with my Greystar cannons but that's my choice and...
