Thanks everyone. I don’t know how to get the calipers. I don’t have that instrument. Where can I buy one (not online). Also, I can’t seem to clean between those grooves much more than I already did.
Couple of questions: it is, indeed, a bullet correct?
Davers, you had mentioned it’s still old. How old do you think?

Any auto parts store will have a digital caliper. I got mine at O'Reilly's for around $20.00. I had a set from Lowe's but they quit working within a month. If you want to get an idea of your bullets diameter you can place it on a coin. A penny is .75", nickel is .83", dime is .70" and a quarter is .95".
Your bullet does not have the ridges or "reeding" in the grooves. Here is what we are talking about.
