Primary Interest:
Relic Hunting
Not a bad couple of hours hunting.

The top 3 bullets are 2 3-ringers and a round ball, the one on the left has a teat in the cavity.
The next 2 fired bullets are Enfields, the one on the left had the rosewood still in the cavity. After removing the rosewood, it did have a '57' in the base which made sense because I found a dropped Enfield '57' with Rosewood in the cavity on the next hill.
The next 3 are more 3-ringers.
The next bullets are a Sharps flat base and 2 Gardners, one dropped and the other ruined someone's day.
The last one is a pistol bullet, fired, possibly from a Colt.
All the junk on the right was in the same area, could be CW era or just farming stuff since then. Gotta get it out of the ground too.

Keep on Digging!!

I lived in Winchester for a few years but didn't have the "bug" at the time. Had a neighbor that found bullets on top of the ground quite often...too bad I didn't get it at the time!

Awesome finds!!!!!!
