[QUOTE=Dean Romig;185692]Nice little mortar you have there Dave - have you fired it?

Yeah, it's black powder of course. It has a 2 1/4" bore. I found that a racquet ball is a perfect size projectile for proper windage. It has a powder chamber 7/8" diameter by 1" long. That much powder will launch the ball about 200 yards, ignited by fuse.
