I need help identifying these 2 bullets. I believe the larger is a Williams cleaner but it hard to tell due to the damage from being fired. The second is much smaller in comparison to a 3 ringer and appears to have a single ring close to the bottom.I will bring my calipers home and measure them soon. I couldnt find an exact match online either.
The smaller one is a 32 or 36 Cal revolver bullet I think.

So, i measured the smaller bullet with calipers. It measures .310 x .472. Meaning it must be a .32 cal. I'm really curious about which model pistol this was used with. I love the history behind everything I find. Much more than the value of them.
