Yep. Except for the wealthy and left-handed parts. And 8-bore goes beyond "big" and into "really, really big". A two ounce (875 gr) round ball must leave a mark on both the shooter and the shootee.
 
I had a friend a long time ago who made a Hawken out of a 20 mm aircraft cannon barrel (.787 cal). Made a mold and shot pure lead patched round ball with 300 grains of BP.

He wasn't real big, with a shotgun stance it would stand him back on one leg and knock his glasses off.

The guy was a real artist, did some fine work that looked like it grew that way.
