Post pictures of what you need identified. I'm not going to invest 24 minutes to figure out what you need.

In a Van down by the river!

Most Round bullets are common 69Cal the few other with two/three rings with space a called "William Cleaners' I think most small lead bullets are called Buck and Ball. Each 69Cal Round Ball had 3 buck ball in same package. Looks like your on good site. Hint, when your warter hunt for Relics dig ever thing that does read Iron [ All Plus Numbers. You can miss small brass button other brass relic buy digging high VID number on any machine/ I hope info helps Steve

OK. We can post some stills of the lead in question. I started relic hunting 3 years ago and there's a tone to learn about identifying relics. We dug everything except iron and hit very little trash. I didn't measure the larger round ball but they looked smaller than 69 cal? I'll take my caliper next time. Thanks for the info.

If you skip to the last 4 minutes you can see most of the bullets. But we will try to post some stills.

I believe the one that had the rings with the flat base is a modern muzzle loader bullet it may be a Buffalo bullet I think that's the name of the maker.

Too bad a guy can't post pics on this forum in the usual way.

so Kenny and Bill did you guys give up on the MXSport? i see you using the AT Pro.

We've both had several ATpros since they came out. I think I'm on my 6th one? You can see I was testing out a Whites Surf II machine and it worked fine. We both have had and used the MXS as well. I had an early one and what was supposed to be the latest model months later. I just didn't like the audio especially modulation among other issues. I can't speak for Bill on this but I know his is gone as well. So we are both back with the solid performing ATpro's. Yes, I wish the TID was bigger and I wish the STD mode was an Expert mode that had a backlight and tone options. I would love to see the 5 digit notches gone and give us full control with each number. But for the price, weight and performance we think it just can't be beat right now. We lover running Pro/zero with these machines. I think it sets them free.....
