A couple of days digging some scattered lead, cant find any info on one of them. Pic #1 measures .44-.45 and has hollow base, flat on tip, is it a post war bullet? Thx in advanced for any help.

I'm no expert on the bullet. But you did get a hand full of lead.

Your pic#1 is a Lyman-style cast bullet, definitely post CW. But a nice collection of CW-era lead otherwise.
