Wow!!!
I just learned a little bit about the 4 bore Rifle. What an amazing gun. 325 grain with a 1/4 pound ball. who is one of these that they will let me borrow.

here is the video on it, check it out if you have some free time. Very interesting

Ya there cool, look up cape guns to, they were a big bore for African game and a smooth bore barrel.

My reaction is : Ouch! Can you imagine the pain of recoil?

I have looked seriously at getting one. The cost of the gun is high, but the cost of a projectile is what stops me. Even if I were to take up casting that’s a whole lot of lead.

There are YouTube videos of John Ross taking African game with his 4 Bore.

He also goes in depth on sighting it in in his book Unintended Consequences
