I was talking about 1500fps, and using a large enough properly shaped venturi orifice (much larger than a Qwaker ) I feel certain that it is possible. The number of shots would be substantially reduced in the process, possibly to a single shot, but I wasn't worried about that. Though I understand why you doubt the design, because "3-5kpsig is a far cry from the approximately 30kpsig of a 45-70"...that is not entirely true because the orifice multiplies the pressure and the only limiting factor is the volume of gas. This is similar in principle to putting your thumb over a water hose to increase the pressure.My idea was to get a 405 grain hard cast out of the muzzle going about 1500fps
