Ok guys, got an idea running through my head that just won't go away... ...I want to shoot discarding sabot rounds from a black powder smooth-bore cannon. Why? I dunno...just seems to be an interesting idea for a project. Make the projectiles out of mild steel rod to keep costs down and not send anyone official into hysterics over "armor piercing" nonsense. Muzzle loader, because a breech-loader would get expensive. Percussion cap ignition, because waiting for a fuse to burn down is a PITA. Not really wanting to go huge, was thinking 1.75" bore to shoot 5/8" or 3/4" rod... Whattaya think, totally ludicrous or doable? |
