    Me, my dad and my friend Cain go back to the civil war camp in north Georgia. Me and my dad were using Garrett AT Pros (I was using the NEL Storm Coil) and Cain was using a Minelab.

    Surface find on a riverfront area that had World War II activity. Appears to be a fired .45 ACP bullet, although my calipers give a diameter of about .43 (it's not quite round, presumably from being fired). Any significance of the double neck grooves? Does that narrow down the year or...
  11. Found First Bullet - But no Idea What Kind

    Finally bought some headphones and am learning to pinpoint with the detector and not rely on the depth gauge or the discrimination. This one was about 8 inches deep.

I could make out "F A" on the upper portion and "3 05" or .3, the round is smushed so it's difficult to...
