A few whatsits

Some sort of heavy duty strap?





No idea some sort of ratcheting bit?



A rather large rim fire, no clear headstamp but you can see where the pin struck. It’s out of round but I figured it can’t get wider so I put calipers on the widest part right above the base where it was least crushed ... maybe a .45 maybe I’m doing it wrong

I appreciate any help.

The shell casing could be a 44 short.

Well thanks for pointing me in the right direction on the shell casing... this spot is a bit frustrating, I find all kinds of things but nothing to give me a good date and a lot of things I have no idea as to what they are.

The second artifact does remind me of a ratchet pawl.
