It consisted in cutting six grooves inside the bore of a muzzle-loading cannon, and to use shells equipped with six lugs which would engage the grooves.''A Dictionary of Military History and the Art of War'' by André Corvisier, p.4/ref> This development was paralleled by that of the Armstrong gun in Great Britain (adopted in 1858 by the British Army).
