Good to hear from you again Ken, and thanks very much for adding to our knowledge of ballistic weapons.
You have some very interesting dispensers for powder there. Mine are only measured powder flasks with a safty cut off on a spring al a 17th Century, or ready made up cartridges kept in a belly bag.
What we need now are some videos of loading and discharging various calibers of cannon.

The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
Then I went and found this one for the AWI just to start the cannon ball rolling.
