UPDATE........Bullet Count

Hey all, 11/23/2012

I posted yesterday and said that it was the best day hunting for me to date.....well today blew that out of the water.

We found what we believe is the main area of the skirmish or battle at this site......untouched virgin site.....when we found an insane amount of .58 3 ring bullets.

My total this morning alone is 44!!!!!

My brother found 31this morning!!!!

Brings our grand total from yesterday to today...........93!!!!!!!

YES.......93

UPDATE........BULLET COUNT
UPDATE.........BULLET COUNT

Ok we went out this morning and picked up where we left off from yest yesterday.

I found....39 more bullets, one is flat and spread out like a misshapen pancake. Also found a decorative pin.

My brother found 18 more......

TOTAL....150:hello2::hello2::hello2:

I have one more day tomorrow to hunt until the next time I come up to visit my folks.

Also, my brother and I have been doing a lot of research and have found out some information on the area and know now, for certain, that this was an area that a large skirmish and other skirmishes took place.
We found the name of the Col. in charge of the union troops as well as more battle ground areas right near here.....that have most likely been untouched do to there remote location and terrain.

Ok, I have put up the pictures of todays finds down below the 2 pictures of yesterdays finds.

NOTICE the one bullet on the bottom right picture at the bottom left of the bullets....its as flat as a pancake!!!!!


Here is Day 1 Video:



Here is Day 2...THE BEST DAY EVER....




Pays to do the research!!!!

Will keep all of you updated.

Ssssssshhhh about the location, keep it to your self or you will find the Archies taking it from you. Do research, but don't tell any one why you are researching. That's what I would do anyway or not do.

I agree. As much as all of us want to share the details, keep a journal privately so the information will one day be available to historians, etc, but keep the site to yourself. Too many snoops and buzzards circling these days. Very nice finds, by the way. I suspect there's more than just bullets beneath your feet.
