Spent the weekend with some great people in Culpeper at a large organized hunt. We stumbled on to a virgin Camp on the last day and man did we have a blast digging it with my group of friends- Jeff n Va, Ray, & Sentinel. We had a great hunt/. Jeff I want to congratulate you personally on the amazing luck of walking over that belt plate. And Ray wow a whole bayonet and a suprise Texas button to Ice that cake buddy. And Josh you had more green in your case than i saw at the hunt buddy with 2 complete spurs shoulder scale and tons of other goodies. My finds ended up being great with around 80 dropped bullets and about 25 fired (not pictured) I also got alot of shell and ball fragments (not pictured) but no whole shells. My favorites are my whole spur and the suprise Block I while it is rough it has an E M L C Richmond, backmark. HH to all

Thanks for looking

Amazing James. I talked to Josh yesterday and he filled me in on those finds. You fellas definitely "stumbled" into it. Great saves - keep it up!

WOW Great finds for sure.
Dad and I are coming down to VA for a week+.We would be blessed to have half as much luck during our whole trip.
you guys cleaned up for sure.

I have asked before and have received many helpful tips, but I will ask again...cause you can never know too much.....
Any tips for the F75 and XLT for VA?

hate to be forward but.....
Would anyone have a spot they might care to share for a hunt.

All I can say is WOW! You guys definitely were in a good spot. When you started showing us everything the other night I couldn't believe it and when I saw that full bayonet I was just speechless. Congratulations on a Great DIV Hunt!!!! Those are some beautiful finds.
