Sounds like easy diggings, certainly in the silver era.Got a permission at an old (1940s) apartment complex where they're taking out some of the grass to use less water. Hopefully there's something worth picking there.
Off I go...
Just be prepared for LOTS of trash. I hunted a very old apartment building once and it was littered with pull tabs and bottle caps everywhere, with lots of other trash to boot.Got a permission at an old (1940s) apartment complex where they're taking out some of the grass to use less water.

They're going to strip the tab/bottle cap layer off for him-just leaving the good targets. _You Thunk?Just be prepared for LOTS of trash. I hunted a very old apartment building once and it was littered with pull tabs and bottle caps everywhere, with lots of other trash to boot.

Well you just never know what a site will produce. At least you gave it a good go, and now you know.Me outting was a failure lol before the lake was there they obviously hunted like hell there. Dug tons of lead bullets and they look to have good age. One wheat penny and nothing of note despite digging everything besides iron tones. Frustrating lol

I used to hand load 45-70 gov't rounds for my Ruger No. 1 rifle and the 375 gr. bullets I used looked just like that.Found my first one of these huge things
