And Warspite is pulling the strings.

Say?... How many times historically can you fire the S. Gustav before the barrel is no good?
I think it was 6 or 8 times?

Accordion to wiki, the original barrel endured 298 rounds before it's worn out

Gustavs were built with a much more conservative design. Their chamber pressure and muzzle velocity were comparable to that of common railway/naval guns of that era, with comparable barrel life of about 300 rounds.

The ludicrously high-pressure, high-velocity WW1-era Paris Gun however... it literally eats barrel. The barrel life was still about 60 rounds, though.

Someone give the poor ladies some change of clothes please.....NO NOT THE ZUIUN CLOTH!!

The couldn't fire the maximum amount of shots from its initial barrel, since they used a lot of it life up in testing.
