My one find from Virgina city Nevada.

Hunted a good bit in VC today. Came across this. 44 caliber Rimfire from a Henry lever action rifle Circa 1860!

Henry rifles used that cartridge but they had dual firing pins. So did the Winchester M-1866. Yours was fired in another brand of rifle. Good find. Gary
