civil war cannon, info please

[John Kepler]

There were certainly more Parrott rifles than Ordnance rifles, but that is confusing quantity with quality. I don't really feel qualified to judge, but a number of artillery experts at the time (many of them on the receiving end of Federal shell fire) felt that the Ordnance Rifle was the best overall.

I can't disagree with you....though I could make a make a fairly strong case for the Wiard!

A real simple question and I (and others, Im sure) have recieved a real education on civil war cannon. Thanks, guys! I would love to go to Grayling this weekend but have to go to gdauters wedding, further north. Web site dates were very confusing!
