(c) The absence of unpleasant recoU with a fsXv charge of powder and shot depends chiefly upon the boring of the barrel, and to avoid it certain principles are sacrificed, which but for this essential, would be carried out. Thus it will be found that, within certain bounds, the more the shot is confined within the barrel, until the whole of the powder is exploded, the stronger will be the shooting.
