Measurements would help with the ID but I think they are modern, around 32 caliber.

Thanks ,it is exactly 3/4 of an inch long and right at one half inch in width ,it feels pretty heavy .
Thanks for your input

From the info given I'd have to guess fairly modern .45 colt cast lead bullets. But you have to know that bullets are very specific as to size, usually measured to hendredths of an inch. And at that they are not specific, as an example 44 caliber is actually .429" in width instead of a true .440. And to say they are fairly heavy is like saying that water is fairly wet. Bullet weights in the USA are measured in grains. You will have to be more specific to get a 100% positive ID. Monty
