of manufacturing the gun barrel, and the first attempts to produce a RML also used his shunt principle for rifling. This is why one could carelessly refer to these guns as Armstrong guns, but they were not manufactured by Armstrong's company, which would then be known as Elswick Ordnance Company, part of Armstrong's. In 1865 Woolwich introduced RML's of 7, 8 and 9-inch. These used a new rifling system called the Woolwich system, and the guns were thus named Woolwich guns.
272: 191:. The outcome was that the government thought that the practical advantage of using these on board ships was limited. Therefore, the United Kingdom primarily adhered to grenade guns and 68 and 32-pounder smooth bore guns. When France started to rifle and reinforce her old cannon, Britain ordered a similar conversion of 300 of its old cannon. This conversion totally failed during the first trials. 228:
in newer muzzle loaders, and was more expensive. A more fundamental problem was that the breechloading mechanism could not withstand the explosive force required to give heavy projectiles the speed needed to pierce armor. Armstrong would indeed withdraw his breechloader from the competition when it came to armor penetration tests.

In the Dutch Navy, the first four guns differed from later models. These first guns had steel barrels which were 'open' at the rear. These were closed by a separate steel closing piece with a copper backing sheet, which was pressed on to the rear by the large screw breech. All later Dutch models had

In 1864 a comparative test of three types of 70-pounder guns took place. In this test, the Armstrong breechloader could not stand up against newer Rifled Muzzle Loaders (RML) designed by himself and Whitworth. The system of rifling employed in the breechloaders was deemed inferior to the system used

was the first significant armored ship of the Dutch Navy, and received the first four guns. There is a huge number of references to the ship having Armstrong guns. The reference that says it had guns "made in Newcastle", shows that these refer to the RML 9-inch Armstrong Gun. Four smaller ironclads

While the Royal Navy made its own guns at Woolwich, Armstrong's Elswick Ordnance Company in Newcastle was merged back into the Armstrong company. Elswick also continued to produce heavy guns, but now only for export. One of these was a 9-inch RML, referred to by the Dutch and others as a 23 cm

The Royal Navy next returned to muzzle-loading rifled guns. These became known as Woolwich guns. Armstrong had improved the Royal Artillery works at Woolwich to produce his breechloaders, but left office in 1863. The Woolwich Works then started to manufacture RML guns. These used Armstrong's method

The Dutch used three kinds of pointed grenades with the 9 inch Armstrong gun. A normal iron grenade of 68 cm and 105 kg, a hardened grenade of 52 cm and 112 kg, and a steel grenade of 51 cm and 109 kg. There was also a massive 'pointed bullet'
219:
For the navy, the Armstrong breechloaders came in 40-pounder, 70-pounder and 110-pounder caliber. In combat and trials, the guns up to and including 40-pounder (4.75 inch) caliber, proved to be very successful after some modifications had been made. In the 1863

The Armstrong gun retained the original larger number of smaller coils, which was more expensive to make. On pictures these coils show as humps as the gun gets smaller while it protrudes to the front. See the picture of a 23 cm Armstrong RML on HNLMS
1309: 207:. In January 1859 a very successful trial of his 18-pounder version took place. Armstrong then became engineer of rifled ordnance, a new post with a very high salary. The Armstrong guns would be produced at the Royal Works at 215:

the eight 110-pounder (7 inch) guns involved were also very successful. They were a bit liable to disturbances, but the problem with the wedge breech was solved to satisfaction.
1871: 1280: 1901: 796: 310:. Mark I of the Woolwich gun has one coil less than the Armstrong gun. Later models have even less coils, with the number of humps decreasing as the marks get simpler. 1314: 30: 410:) of 46 cm (sic!) long and 113 kg, which was of course also shaped like a cylinder. Finally, there were three kinds of shrapnel shot of 68.50 kg. 290:
