Could it be my First Confederate Bullet?

[zaxfire69]

Hello everyone. Well I went out today to the Hunted out park again. This time had the Ace 250. Dug a no date buffalo, 3 wheats and this sweet bullet. I sent a couple of pictures of it to my friend and he believes it is a CS High Tower Enfield. It is over an 1 inch long, has a 1/2 inch cone cavity. Very deep. It has a seam that runs down the length of the bullet. My friend said they are kinda rare to dig. He was excited about it. He lives in Vicksburg, Ms and digs bullets all the time. Well if any of you guys would like to comment on it let me know. I am happy to have saved this one. zaxfire69

I think you are right Ivan. It does have a couple of little indents on the backside of the bullet. Maybe from just sitting in the ground for so long. Not sure. I am happy as a lark with this one. For sure.

Pritchet Cavity Enfield. Is that a common bullet to dig. This is my first non 3 ringer style bullet. I am gonna do some reading on it.

These days ANY Confederate bullet is uncommon.......but keep hunting that spot, and you will see more of the Confederacy!
