old mini ball???

[Amy Morgan]

Found this in a field in Missouri last year. Is this a mini ball? Anyone have any additional info or can date approximately?

Shotgun slug.

Yep on the shotgun slug. They can get your heart pumping at first though. Once found a French Triangle bullet and thought it was a shotgun slug. LOL! Glad I kept it and let my buddy see it as he knew it was a keeper and not a slug. Almost threw it out! Now, I don't throw anything away until I recheck everything. So you can teach an old dog new tricks. Good luck on future hunts!

Is it old?

This style is still made today, yours looks to be older, probably shot from a paper shell (actually very heavy, thick paper), 30's, 40's 50's ish......my grandfather gave me a bunch of old paper shotgun shells and slugs, but me being a dumb kid 30 years ago shot them all up instead of buying modern ones.

Thanks Tedyoh!! It's very cool and thinking it was one maybe my grandpa shot
