Just saw this video of artillery fire and he uses very slow motion cameras YouTube link One thing not normally seen is with real ordnance, which will see how much recoil happened.

This is worth it to see the slow motion frames. You can see both solid and canister rounds actually leaving the pieces. I've never seen shots like this. To actually see the canister spread out is neat. Thanks I have worked all positions on the gun, but we never fire live rounds and we are strictly a living history unit. But, We do look better than these guys. 😉
