Old Bullet question?

New at finding old bullets. I was out hunting an area close to an old civil war prisoner camp and had a couple finds that I am not sure about. Any help on these would be appreciated.
 
Bullet with grooves is .300 dia. X .480 long
 
not sure about the piece on the left, but the middle bullet looks to me like a dropped Spencer or Merrill. They were both solid base minnies used during the war. The one on the right is either a shot .69 round ball or a piece of lead canister shot.
 
The bullet in the middle looks to be cw period. Does it have any striations within the rings itself ? CCH
