Prattville Alabama Hunt,
I drove by this old homestead the other day and stopped to see if I could hunt with my new detector. I am now swinging the Garrett AT-Pro with stock coil. I gained permission to hunt but the owner, he mentioned his friend came out with his detector and pounder this site many times, and good luck finding stuff.
Well it was only a short time when I had a huge hit. I started digging and pulled out these 14- 3 ringer bullets in a small ammo dump. The picture shows alot of other stuff too like an civil war eagle cuff button, partial gun barrel band, buckle, a woman's compact encrypted with (Three Flowers Richard Hudnut New York). And of coarse trash.I gave the owner a couple of the bullets to show his family and friends on facebook.
Looking for more hunters to swing coils with here in Montgomery area!:hello:

Well here are more finds from the same site. However I used the New Fieldscope to locate the items in the heavy wooded area of the site.
