Really nice find. I am a beleiver that they did not bite the bullets as people think. Teeth were bad enough and you should try biting one. i think if in pain they would bite a stick or leather first. Way to go on a hunted out area!

bite marks are from some poor fella, being held down, while some surgeon digs out another piece of lead
