Unexpected and neat

[EddieR]

Got out for a little while today on my lunch break. After digging several pieces of shredded cans, pull tabs, and so forth, I got a deep signal. Cutting a deep plug, I turned this up....a bullet embedded in an old piece of tree. I love finds like this!!

Definitely qualifies as most unusual find. 8)

That's much better than finding a bullet embedded in a skull.
Cool find.

Definitley cool. I found a newer hollow point with the hollow full of wood from where it bounced off of a tree I think. Weird one because it was fired but had no grooves on almost like it was a sabot round or something.

Tow, probably was a sabot round. A lot of guys using muzzleloaders nowdays use them because they can get more velocity out of smaller bullet-say a .357 out of a 45cal or a .44 mag out of a 50 or 54cal.

Adding to what stoney said, down here in fla, some areas are only available to hunt with muzzleloaders! 8)

Great find. Things like this can really get you charged up. What is the story? Only the guy who shot the round knows for sure. Keep posting.
