Couple more bigguns

Found a couple more .69 calibers today. These are massive hunks of lead. No wonder so many limbs were amputated during the civil war. These had to really cause havok to the body. Not sure what the smaller bullet is.

Nice digs, those .69 cals are definitely monsters.

Too bad they don't make that many reproduction .69 cal muzzleloaders, they'd be fun for metallic silhouette shooting and such.
