Hello all!

Its not like you could duck out of the way... and I'm sure it would do more than leave a mark... actually... you would be the mark... on the ground...

Here is my cannister shot I dug at a closed school next to Ft Griswold...

Happy Hunting!

Now if you would please tell me what is a cannister shot? Just wondering, Beale.

A canister shot is like buck shot but fired from a cannon...

I found this at a school that is directly attached to our 1781 battle grounds site... On public ground... 10 ft away and a basic fence and It's National Historic Grounds... and off limits!
