bullet info help please

[thrillathahunt]

I have found what looks to be an old camp site. I have dug quite a number of .36 caliber lead round balls, both fired and unfired. I assume they are from a pistol, so my question is, what are the kinds and types of guns that would have used these bullets? Thank you.

The most prolific would be the ,36 cal Colt Navy. Calvary used them quite a bit and it was a very popular pistol.
