    What type bullet is this?

    I know this isn't cast but I picked it up while berm mining last week, about 10 of them. Tried to drill through two of them and it looks like copper external. Any ideas?

    Barnes copper tube bullets?
    We need somebody/something to keep the government (cops and bureaucrats too) HONEST (by non government oversight).

    Every "freedom" (latitude) given to government is a loophole in the rule of law. Every loophole in the rule of law is another hole in our freedom. When they even obey the law that is. Too often government seems to feel itself above the law.

    We forgot to take out the trash in 2012, but 2016 was a charm! YESSS!

    Looks like one of remington's all copper shotgun slugs. I have the same somewhere
    around here that I dug out of the berm on the pistol range at our old location. The slug was encased with a sabot when loaded in the shotgun shell. Frank

    +1; that was my thought, too.
