My Chisholm Trail Hunt 5 Find...A First

[looknforgold]

First, I want to Burdie and all of those involved in making it such a great get together & hunt from meeting some great people to some awesome food (Thanks, Kurt_Ks) .

This was a first for me, a 3 Ring Bullet with great white patina. I actually found this in the park Friday night before the Saturday field hunt. I guess the field got the best of me, but that park, it paid off. I also seen 2 Barber Quarters pulled Friday afternoon there as well. there was some really good finds found Saturday as well from some of the Hunters....can't wait to see what all was found on Saturday...... Thanks for lookn' & HH, LFG,

I really don't know much about bullets.. a few mentioned 45/7, or something maybe? you can google Caldwell Ks and you will find out about it's history... the Chisholm trail went there, it was also one of the starting points for the 1889 Oklahoma land.

It's about as flat as Flat can be, flat...there is some slow rolling hills though.

Doesn't look like a regular 3 ringer. May be a 45/70 government. Need to measure with calipers and one of the bullet Gurus will nail it.
