12 pounder

My son posted this film clip from Camp Grayling on another site and I thought some might find it interesting. A 12 pound Confederate Iron Napoleon firing 2.5 pounds of Goex Cannon grade and 12 pound zinc round ball. Close to a full service load. Notice the dust, the way the wheels buckle, and the flex in the handspike. Neat stuff.
