This is mine, but I let a friend shoot it who is having some ‘wife’ issues. It shoots golf balls. The maximum charge is 400-grains, but we were only shooting 100-grain loads at the 200-yard berm … and we never saw a golf ball in flight … FORE!

That looks like so much fun! I've wondered if I could watch the golf ball by decreasing the charge......

Is that one made by Dom?
 
FYI, I added this post to 'PHOTOS' and not to the 'CANNON' Forum as "by law" of the State in which I reside - it is not a cannon, in that cannons are specifically muzzleloaders that need special permits and licenses issued by the State Fire Marshall for ownership and use. This is due to the potential for "lots of powder and embers residing deep in the cannon bore". Mortars are further defined as short-barreled cannons designed to fire at a 45-degree angle or higher.
