What would be the common name of artillery that fired a 3.3" projectile? Perhaps @John Winn knows? I probably missed it above. If so, I apologize.
You rang ?
Those were Parrott rifles and they fired Dyer and Archer bolts (maybe others too - too lazy to go look it up just now). I think the 3.3 inch rifles were Confederate only (again, going from memory), small in number, and manufactured early in the war.
