    Over 30 years ago at an antique arms shoot i had a go with a 4 Bore flint lock after having watched several others it didn't seem so bad. We I had been giving the owner/maker a bit of stick about the standard of finish, so he loaded me a shot charge rather than ball. More weight, more surface area more recoil. Blew me backwards leaving my glasses behind.
    My how they all laughed.
