No, a crate contained 1,000 rounds. That many, though, is not going to fit in one cartridge box. Makes me wonder if all of those were in one haversack or two cartridge boxes were thrown down side by side.

Was the dirt black with powder? Any bits of leather found? Where was this found?

My dad found one Shot bullet there the rest were drops his mangled shot was covered in powder but that's all for that

 

[Mark1985]

That was a crazy day Mark. That will get your relic average up-LOL. HH, Quindy.

 

[Mark1985]

For sure Quinn had never found more than one bullet in one hole let alone able to keep digging in the same one and find that man it was crazy dono how so many got there was no slag no powder or leather around

 

[BuckleBoy]

Killer day! I've never dug that many drops in one hole. I've found around that many fired in one hole at a target drill area before.

Awesome dig!

[Mark1985]
