MORTARS

Weight of Shell	Maximum Range
8"	1720 yards
10"	2530 yards
13"	2700 yards

Mortars were fired at a fixed elevation of 45 degrees, the range being varied by altering the charge.  Once the range was found, they could be fired repeatedly without being relaid.  For this reason, they were mainly kept for night firing, while the day bombardment was carried out by the "horizontal fire" of the guns.
