I have several unfired from a site about 15 miles from Gettysburg.
Smokey took me there, figured it was a union lookout site.
I would send you a couple if you like. Free

Smokey is bad that way! I have some from a camp in Virginia I dug myself. I'll see if that regiment was there. May take awhile.

If you have any battle bullets that are not listed, let me know anyway. I especially like mushroomed examples.

This is what I currently do with my bullets. I make "custom" shelves to put them on. For my extra special ones, I create it's own mini stand.

Any cruddy Canister balls you have, but don't want to clean (or keep)? I love cleaning them, and they'll have a nice home with me.

What about anything from Arkansas?

I like Battle bullets, i.e bullets from the vicinity's of Battlefields. Pea Ridge is the only one I know of in Arkansas. I wouldn't mind any from there, but when I think of Arkansas bullets, I think of the crazy ones, like the Arkansas Hawg, Cosmopolitan, etc. I could never afford those.
