if you use a powder chamber in a handgonne can you use a bigger bore like a .75 bore with a 7/16 powder chamber made of 1 1/4 1018

Two of my .75 Handgonnes have .50 powder chambers.

BTW, keep it up with the Handgonne videos! :thumbsup:

I don't see why it wouldn't work. That'd give you .40" walls around the chamber. I don't know that I'd go nuts and make like a 100gr. chamber or anything ( :haha: ), but a modest sized chamber ought to be fine. Go ahead and make one, proof it, and see how she does.
