It was on Ebay, and I knew the sellers reserve. It sure looks like a quality piece! It is a little over 20" long, 9" high, and the barrel is 17" long. It is has a 1" inch bore, which goes as far as needed. Weight is 28lbs, and carriage is solid oak.
What size should the touch hole be, and what powder load would you start with? What caliber would 1" be?
I will post more pics when it arrives. I thought just based on having a turned steel barrel, iron wheels and overall size 250.00 was a good deal!
I have looked at others, and they were much more! Anybody know the origin of this cannon, and what it is modeled after? Stated, that it is pretty old.
