Apparently it's a 2000 grain bullet

4 and 8 gauge shotguns have been banned from hunting in the US since 1918. If I recall correctly, a 4 bore standard load of shot was 2 1/2 oz, not that much more than some newer 10 gauge loads.

4 bores are still used in the UK for pass shooting waterfowl. One or two BB members like MacFarlaine can contribute more about it.

As to this particular 4 bore, I do not want to try it.

I'd rather shoot it than be the poor fella standing behind.

Like watching a catcher get hit in the face with a baseball bat. Ouch

It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt...

In the early days of market hunting 4 bores and larger were used as punt guns for waterfowl. Almost decimated the East Coast Flyway until sport hunters got them banned.
