Awesome finds Johnny!! Man, I wish I had of MD'd when I lived in Chaffee near Cape. So many places i've remembered that I should have hunted!
 

Can you imagine how destructive a .69 caliber bullet wound would have been? The damage to bone and flesh accounts for the enormous number of amputations that took place during the CW. Well, that and the ensuing infection.

Your finds are more proof that no place is ever totally hunted out. WTG.
 

Awesome finds, John. ;D There more out there, keep up the detecting.

;) RR
 

Hard work always gets you something! WTG!
 

Nice 3 ringer John.Love finding those.Get back out there and find some more.
 

Nice finds...I love to see the lead in the ground...I wonder if three ringers were ever used in Canada...
 

Good stuff! There is always something left.
