Just left the park with a pocket full of lead and a splash of silver

[Truth]

Well my friends I️ woke up early this morning before sunrise and took the hour drive to my spot at the park. Well I️ found these in the same area different spot. Wow!! 3 .56 cals 3 .54 cals, what appears to be a .48 cal with a flat bottom, a small .38 3 ringer and a 1944 P War nickel. I️ also found a bullet cartridge that might have went to a .56 not sure (if anyone knows anything more about this let me know please). The spot I found, in this 1300 acre park, which is about 40x40ft has netted me 20 3 ringers (4 were .69 cals) in the last month and a half never having found one before in my life. They were all between 8” to a foot deep. Found with my Max and F75 both with big coils. I’ve been hunting this park since I started 3 years ago, never this spot, but close to it. Just goes to show you, you never know what’s on the other side. Keep swinging and never give up.
The small .38 cal

Way to get the lead out, Truth! Fine specimens of reminders of days gone by, I shudder to think of some of those huge hunks of lead hurtling by. Great finds, always nice to have a great go-to spot that you know is going to cough something nice up. Ddf.
