So when they handed him the shell, which they do one at a time so the playing field is fair, he would pocket the factory shell and slip in the "magnum." He said it sounded like a cannon going off and would almost knock him to the ground in the light gun. I doubt it took the shooting match people long to figure it out. I guess I should have cut back on the powder.

In the link above you will find the 2-2-10 shells mentioned.
Should'a loaded him some black powder. Sounds like this guy would have deserved the ridicule he would have received.
