I dug this "live" round two years ago with my Ace 250. Finally got around to having it looked at by a local gun collector. Pretty interesting results .. enjoy !
 
Very nice relic, that looks great! Congrats
 
Unique find McDave.
Wonder if there's more in that area ?

I was wondering that myself Joel ... I would like to get back in there but the guy that brought me there is a hard drinker now. And you can never tell if he is going to be Dr. Jekyll or Mr. Hyde when you visit. I just assume stay away for now and hope he survives long enough to "see the light" .. if you know what I mean.
 
Congradulations on a very rare find.I own a frank Wesson double trigger rifle in32 rimfireI also shoot a 1864 ballard in 38 long. I also shoot and make my own black powder cartridges for 5 sharps that I shoot in competion.The mixture was given to me by the owner of now defunct republic cartridge. Again congrats on a very rare find. HH Wayne in Delaware
