Here is my small bullet collection. It is composed of bullets my dad has found, bullets that I have bought, and bullets that I have been gifted. I have them all cataloged on my computer as to what came from where.

That is an impressive collection of CW lead Rusty. Great job in cataloging these artifacts. Knowing the story behind when and where these were found makes them that much more valuable.

I don't even have enough riker cases for everything. Right now, they lay scattered on my bottle shelf. I do want to buy a few nice mini cases for my CS button, and two relics I just bought. A .69 Cal. roundball found at Antietam, and a Minie ball picked up from little Roundtop in Gettysburg, by a Civil War veteran.
