Thank you! But yes there are some areas I go to the grounds hard as a rock!

Im up in Prescott! There's tons of history up here. I've never made it down south of here too far but I've always wanted to head south and try to find some Spanish relics!
 

That is cool.
 

Congratulations on your hunt.
Not too many of us on Tnet who are hunting right now. (Snow)
 

Nice hunt. For some reason, I've found a lot of 45-70 brass lately, but none that haven't been fired. Pretty cool. Congrats.

Thank you! I find a lot of them, mostly all crushed. I have found another "whole" one but I don't count it since it's broken into about 5 pieces haha.
