Is this a musket ball?

I was detecting in the field by my house and found this round lead object. It seems kind of small for a musket ball. Did they make them this small?

There are alot of different sizes.

It looks like a .45cal. I muzzle load in Ohio and I have a bag of these. They have made these for quite some time so being the depth you found it and not really knowing what kind of Wind and rain and soil you have, It could be 30 years old + or -
