Um, where's the muzzlebreak? This would be the leading contender for the legendary retina/ocular nerve separation I've always heard as the caveat to shooting the heavy calibers. Geez, that gun is absolutely beautiful, and completely unnecessary.

I don't think a muzzle break would work on this type of rifle. You need a lot of gas at the muzzle to make one work. I don't think there would be any powder left after the first 15 inches of bore.

Re: Portable Artillery
I read that Sir Samuel once fired his 2 bore from horseback, and it "unhorsed" him. He used 4 ounce explosive shells on hippos, and " emptied the brain pan".
Massive.
