Old Bullet

[Pointman]

The obvious question would be if this bullet is CW era. In my non-pro opinion, I am pretty sure that it isn't because of the hash marks in the rings, but I also didn't look it up to verify. Even still it was found in a historic CW town.

What I am curious about, what kind of bullet/era is it? It has a shallow concave base like a black powder era bullet.

Here are the following dimensions and weight:

232 grains
.450 (average) diameter
.700 long

Possibly .45 long colt pistol or perhaps .45 Schofield pistol bullet, and the grease grooves date it later, probably from 1900 until now.
