Cousin Andrew's 4 ga. Shotgun!
Andy who is a gunsmith recently built his own shotgun. But he didn't stop at conventional factory loads/gauges, he built a 4 gauge.
It shoots 1 pound of lead and is deadly to 100 yds. he fires 1200 grains of f powder behind the shot. He built the entire gun from scratch including the boring machine he needed to punch out the almost 2inch dia. barrel, 40 inches long. He even cut down the cherry tree to make the stock. The man is a genius when it comes to firearms but is content to do his own thing although he could probably work at any firearms manufacturer out there.
He says 3 shots and that's it, shoulder starts to hurt. No doubt!!! And no cushioned butt plate!
