✅ SOLVED Little bit of help on this bullet.

32g, thinking .57 Cal CW bullet. Anybody have an idea how the end of this (fired?)bullet got crimped like this. Found in a CW camp.

Thanks for any help.

Could be that a soldier started to hammer it flat or carve it, but then gave it up. Making things out of bullets was a pretty common in camps.

Fairly sure its CW since I found a couple Spencer casings around the same area. Thanks!
