Bullets in RI - what kind?

[simulant]

Happy Friday everyone. I found these bullets all within 10 ft of each other pretty much. I know next to nothing in this topic so hoping you guys know what these are!

All of them together:



Starting from the left, the first one is fully intact so looks unfired. The second one looks similar to the first one with that one main ring and then the paneled pattern above it. The last two are hollow on the bottom so are these casings?

.22 long rifle is my educated guess.

The bottom one looks to be a .38 cal hollow base wad cutter. 148 gr just guessing need weight , I did not see any 22LR

Modern .38 wad cutters?

First one is 9.36g and bottom one in the pics is 8.69g

Measurement of bottom one same as first bullet:

The first one on the left has rifling marks, so it has been fired. Looks like .44 caliber pistol bullets. A .44 caliber bullet measures .429 inches, or 10.9mm. The first bullet on the left is a standard, non jacketed bullet. The hollow based one is a wad cutter, which is a target cartridge, the end of the bullet is flat so that it will punch a clean hole in the paper target.

Forgot to mention, the bullet ID chart posted above is for civil war bullets. Your finds are modern, and are still being manufactured today. I think the first .44 caliber cartridge revolver was manufactured by Colt in 1917, and there was also a 1917 Smith and Wesson. If I'm wrong, someone can correct me, but I think the .44 cartridge gun is right at 100 years old, and the .44 round ball revolver dates back to the Civil War.
