Be a little more helpful if you would put a battery in your calipers or give a weight unit (obviously not grains) for your scale.

If it is grams then your object is 444.29 grains - consistent with a .50 cal conical bullet something-or-other.

Sorry the battery died I need to get a new one. Looks like it’s 14mm-15mm kinda squished. I switched the scale to grains looks like 444.6 hope this helps thanks ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1536548478.530917.jpg

Your measurements work out to about a 54 caliber bullet that is .83"s long. Is the base flat or concave?

Old muzzleloader bullet. The conical shape to the nose with the dimpled ring is from it being rammed. More or less .54 caliber.
