Added More Tenn. U.S. CW Lead to the Box Today-VIDEO

[VOL1266-X]

With Josh working and Doug’s daughter from Texas visiting today, I made a solo return trip to one leg of the U.S. Civil War Infantry camp Triangle and hunted the North camp where I dug 5 dropped bullets last Monday. I dug a dropped .58 and .69 to add to the box from Triangle camp #1. I consolidated my relics from Camp #1 and #3 into one box as shown. The Tennessee Trio recovered 232 relics from triangle Camp #2 in 2014 as it was previously undiscovered. Thanks for looking, Q.
Watch for my article “One Relic short of 500” in the May issue of W & E Treasures Magazine. See Doug standing in a rifle pit-LOL.

A very nice display, Quindy! You must have a ton of lead by now. Sometimes I wonder, just what does one do with all those bullets!

Bet the article is a killer!

WTG!

WAF, the answer is "Have a woodworking friend build heavy duty cabinets to keep them in"-LOL. Thanks WAF & HH, Q.

Yep! That'll do it! Looks like you'll be ready to open up a shop when the black powder revolution comes back into style.

Say! Maybe you can tell me. Something about the "musket balls" I found in my last post? I can't tell a modern lead ball from an antique. (except for a solid white patina).

Nice set up!

I saw them earlier and when I started muzzleloader hunting for deer in the 1970s, We never used the balls-only conical bullets. People who used balls shot .45, 50, and .54 cal. balls. The .69s and larger were Rev. War & CW. It takes several years to achieve the lead oxide patina. Check the ball caliber. I'm certainly no weapons authority. HH, Q.

Great, great hunt. I bet the others wish they could have gone along. Thank you for your videos Mr. Q. I always enjoy them. Your comments are always welcomed too because of the amount of knowledge you share with us. Keep 'em coming.

Ya know, Quindy, sometimes it makes me wonder. There are sooooo many dropped bullets out there from the Civil War! It makes me wonder how anybody ever won that war! LOL

I love the display!
