[QUOTE="memtb, post: 3078419, member: 75451"] I fired many hundreds of those rounds at lime balls which sometimes formed in the Lime Kiln. Though, ours had no recoil. It was a special gun (very heavy) that had a base that was bolted to the kiln firing hood window. It was a "falling block" design receiver! It was an absolutely miserable job……very hot at the firing hood of the kiln, and the first 10 or 20 rounds shook a few inches of powdered lime dust off of everything (support structureg, pipes, electrical wiring, ect.) where you were at. The first couple of shots shook off some much dust visibility was near non-existent! Then of course, that lime dust was activated by your sweat, making you a very miserable sob until the lime burns healed. It was not a fun place to work! memtb [/QUOTE]
