Exactly what part of the planet is your area? A pumpkin cannon sounds
like a fun project. I'm a bit north of the DFW area.

Pete, I'm south of DFW. I've got a 500 gallon propane tank and a gas
air compressor. What caliber is a pumpkin?



The holder of the world record (5 years running IIRC) submitted a 1446
pounder this year, missing his best by 3 pounds. Again, IIRC. It's been
10-12 hours since I read the article. I'll let someone else guess what
caliber it might be.
