bullets found does anybody know what they are

Hi Steve; They are 2 percusion cap types 1860's to 1900's; One 3 Ringer lead bullet 1860's and a modern bullet. hHope this helps. PEACE:RONB
 
The third bullet looks like a Williams cleaner. There would have been a space between the main body and the base. When it was fired it would collect the build-up from the barrel in that space.
 
what type of riffle would have fired those bullets???
 
I do not think that big one is a three ringer , it does not have three rings and it does not have a cavity.
 
I agree with fyrffytr1
3rd one from the left is a type 3 Williams bore cleaner.
.58 caliber bullet that was very common during the civil war.

Clean it up with an old toothbrush and some water, you should be able to see two rings and a zinc plunger.
