What is the most powerfull gun on earth?
Depends on whether you use the weight of the projectile, or the range it can be fired. During WW I and WW II, the German Army built railroad guns that could fire a shell VERY long ranges- measured in miles. The largest guns in use today MAY be the US Navy 16 inch guns used on battleship- they fire a shell 16 inches WIDE- the shell weighs as much as 2,700 pounds, and has a range of 41,662 yards (about 39 kilometers). There have been other experimental guns under project HARP that were intended to fire a shell into earth orbit- but their status is uncertain. See the link below for information on the Navy 16 inch guns. Of course, these are NOT hand held firearms.

What do sailors do in the gun turrids on battleships?
The battleship USS New Jersey was the world's last all gun (no missiles) battleship fighting her last war in Vietnam in 1968. Sailors manned the three turrets each armed with three 16" rifles (guns). Crewmen rammed the 16" projectile (warhead) into the breech, then rammed bags of gunpowder behind the shell (warhead), then primed the breech, then secured it (closed it). The guns were fired from the bridge gun-fire control rooms. The New Jersey fired approximately 5,700 sixteen inch and 15,000 five inch shells at enemy targets during the Vietnam War.
