building a 2 bore

[wbyman]

I saw a 2 bore underhammer a couple of years ago, built by a guy out east. Has anyone here ever built a 2 bore ?

what do you plan to shoot a 3500 grain ball at ( 7000 gr per pound and 2 to the pound ) and how mutch powder would you use to get it to move faster than a role if you do find this gun pleas poast pix of the first time you shoot it my 62 ( 20 bore) with 90 g 2f makes me cring so shooting a 2 bore is out of my relm

Ed Rayl might be able to build you a barrel for that gun. He's doing a 75 caliber rifled barrel for me. Tell us how yours goes. GC

2 bore??? That's a proximity weapon. All you have to do is get the ball close to an animal's head (be it deer, elk, moose, bear..etc) and it will suck their brains right out of their ears... :haha:
