✅ SOLVED Old Bullet?

[SorenCoins]

I found this hunk of lead when I was metal detecting at an old hunting cabin a few years back. My dad fought in the military and he told me that that bullets dont have that much lead in them anymore. The whole thing weighs 24 grams (.85 ounces). I was wondering if anyone would know when this much lead was used in bullets. Thanks, Soren.

That looks like a shotgun slug.

Definitevly a slug, you can see the bottom of it. Thanks Guys. I assume its probably from around 1930-1960
