        I may have that at home on a PowerPoint presentation, Dale. I'll check after work and let you know.

          Sorry, Dale...it was a Table of Fire for a 6 Pounder. Good luck!

              Thank you, one and all for your time and efforts.

              pennvolunteer - thanks. Although the attachment was listed as a 12-pdr Mtn Howitzer, it was actually an abbreviated version of the 12-pdr Field Howitzer. A great help!
              ____________________________

              Still missing the TIME OF FLIGHT information for the shell projectiles fired by the 12-pdr Field Howitzer.
              Has anyone ever seen this information?
              Can anyone provide me with the formula(s) to calculate times of flight?

              Thanks so much,
