Ammo was a 2"dia., 2lbs. Gun was 80 lbs French and Indian War replica used in re-enactments. The neighbor's hose was 400 yard away. What the hell was he using for a backstop? His neighbor's house? (dumb-shit) And a 2 inch cannon is big by replica standards. 1.5 " is about as big as they get as replicas go. Hopefully they dont pile the charges on this dude. Is he an idiot? Yes. Criminal? No.

Dude should stick to mortars if he is on that small of a chunk of land.
