Would like a bullet confirmation and a "what is it".

[BladeRunner2019]

Hello all.

Found these yesterday near a CW battle site. Is the bullet on the right a Gardner? The length is around 1.06" and approximately .5" in diameter. Weight is 463.9 grains.

The Enfield and Gardner were in the same hole as the iron piece on the left. I was curious if it was just a random piece of farm trash or if it was CW related. Here is another angle on that item. It has a slight curve to it.

The Enfield has a wood plug. I had to research to find out about those. Pretty cool it's still there.

Also found the buckle which I assume is just some horse tack.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Yes ,58cal. Gardner and .577cal Enfield with rosewood plug, nice! Not sure on the iron item.

Those are nice!!! Being West of the MS I've never found a Gardner, though some are found here, and I've never found a bullet with a plug in it. GREAT, finds!!! d2

I dont know about the iron piece. But the Enfield with the plug is awesome. Nice finds.

The iron piece is the bracket off of a bucket that the handle attached to.

The plug in that Enfield is Boxwood, not Rosewood. Killer finds Bill!

Here is what CannonBallGuy said about my Enfield, I'm certain that it also applies to yours.

That would be my guess as well.

Very cool! Thanks for the link with TCG's information. I think this is my favorite CW bullet so far.

Thanks for that 'Iron ' ID , I know I have a few of those pieces laying around.
& Bladerunner , I concur your 58 Gardner they are scarce here in N Atlanta as well , The Enfield W/ Plug is sweet , I like the other 3 ringer as well.

Nice Digs

Nice finds BladeRunner!! Congrats!!!

Those rounds have the profile of rounds I find around here.

Was the Enfield dug in a wet area? I ask because, the only 4 I have dug with the boxwood plugs intact, were found in a pond. Those 4 all had pristine cavities with no oxidation and marked "57".

Thanks Yak! These 3 bullets were found in an area that is somewhat elevated so I don't think it would have been super wet.
