I found this in a farm field. It's probably something mundane but I thought it was interesting enough to at least attempt to find out what it is. It's brass/copper, about 3" long, hollow, flared at one end. It has two "tabs" with holes through them. No markings except for the ring around the flared end. Thanks for looking.

I do believe it's a ram rod pipe, possibly off a Brown Bess musket.

This is a forward ramrod pipe off a second model, short land pattern Brown Bess musket.

And this picture shows the location of the pipe.

And this shows what the entire gun looks like, so go back and do some more looking. There might be more there.
