Long Range of Cannon.


Thej longest distance that a SHOT
has been cred is few yards over Is
miles, which was the range of
Krupp's 190-ton steel gun, firing q
shot weighing $500 pounds, says
Spare Moments. The Hilton Arm
strong gun has an extreme range Of
l 4 miles, firing shot weighing l.
90Os pounds, nd requiring $50
pounds of powder. These guns,
however, proved too expensive, being
unable to stand firing 100 times, and
their manufacture has practically
been abandoned. The 22-ton Arm
strong gun hurls solid shot for
distance of II miles, and the dis
charge of the gun cannot be heard
al the place where the ball strikes.
From twelve to thirteen miles is the
computed range Of the most power
full guns now made, and to obtain
that range an elevation Of nearly As
degrees is found to be necessary.
Quick firing guns are more TO be
depended upcn at the present day
than extreme length ofrange, and in
this respect what is considered the
most wonderful of guns, perhaps, is
one of the maxims, which can fire as
many as 900 shots minute, and yet
is so light that soldier can carry
it strapped to his back.
