>Oh no its back :)

What?  I've been here ...

For the record, "Royal" refers to something of great size or strength.
For example, a Royal Mortar fires a "24 pound" ball, that's 5.5 inches in
diameter.  A Royal Cannon is a 66 pounder (8.5 inches in diameter).

So I figured a Royal Round would have to be at least 50 caliber...

Or were you referring to the legendary meeting of monarchs at pennsic
sitting around singing "row, row, row your boat"?
