Pistol bullet I.D.'s

I'm sorry to be a pain but I have to turn in a finds list for a group hunt and want to make sure I have all my I.D.'s right. pb.webp
 
You need to provide accurate measurements of each bullet for a proper ID. And, a picture of the bottom would also help.

I'm using the updated "Handbook Of Civil war Bullets & Cartridges (by the Thomas brothers) to identify your civil war pistol-bullets, from left to right in your photo.
1- unfired "Old-Model" .36 Colt bullet
2 & 3- fired Colt "New-Model" bullet for .44 revolvers
4- fired Colt "Old-Model" bullet made by the Watervliet Arsenal for .44 revolvers
5 & 6- unfired Leet-&-Hall bullet for .44 revolvers
7- unfired Colt "Old-Model" bullet made by the Watervliet Arsenal for .44 revolvers
