These shells were traditionally used to blow the cement klinker scale off the walls of cement kilns. The kiln gun is a large device, and resembles the cal. 50 Browning heavy machine gun in size, shape and weight. The Remington museum has an outstanding example of a Remington-built kiln gun in their reference arms collection (not in the museum).
