Got a Neat Carbine Bullet Today in West Central Mississippi

[Ripcon]

I dug this .52 calibre Joslyn Carbine Bullet today. First time I've ever found one of these. Anyone else ever found one of these in Vicksburg campaign site areas?

What a cool find. Isn't that one rare. I've not heard of one. By the way CONGRATS!

Thanks! From what I just read, the Joslyn carbine was not very popular. It saw service with US troops starting in 1862. I was surprised to find it.��
