✅ SOLVED I have a bunch of items that I am going to post in "What is it" so I can display them or throw them out. #2, Thanks for your help!

#2. I believe this is lead. Looks like a bullet but I've never seen the cross hatching around the side. Any thoughts? Thanks!

modern bullet

It looks similar to the metal jack you attach a vehicle tire compressor to? It even has the bump in the center that would release the air into the tire?? Maybe it is just used to adjust the air from tires by releasing some?

Looks like a shotgun slug possibly.

Looks like it could be a modern muzzleloader bullet.

Junk.

Unfired muzzle loader bullet. Possibly a Buffalo Bullet Co brand bullet.
Crosshatching holds the lube in place.
They did make them in other calibers besides .54 as well.
You'd have to measure and weigh the one you have to see what it is.
