I've been pounding this area that's about 50x50 feet in this huge soy bean field for the past 3 days now and I'm still pulling out bullets. Sadly(although I love seeing the bullets come out of the ground) I haven't found any huge pieces. Just hoping that next good signal will be a nice button or box plate or something! Oh well! Can't complain...it was another beautiful January day...got to enjoy the sunshine a nice outdoor lunch and got to pull some CW relics. Can't complain! Anyone know what the piece is in the second picture? Thanks for looking.

Nice finds keep at it hope you find a complete Spencer they are hard to find!
 
This guy I talked to has 2 jars full of complete spencer carbine bullets. He does night hunting...not of the legal kind I believe.
