I've been finding some rather unusual projectiles in the berms in my mining operation.
what are the mesurement on the first one
I joined this site with a goal that sounds normal.
To learn to make a mold and cast a boolit.
Until you realize I want to make a 1.4 caliber boolit for a spud gun. This is my goal! Feel free to come hate or help me reach it.

That last one looks like an expanding full metal jacket bullet.

I believe the first is from a saboted slug and agree with thx on the last one.

The back end of the 40 S&W sure looks odd too.
Is that some kind of plastic inside of it??
The 40 S&W looks like a dummy/snap cap type of round. The last looks like something LE would use, ie, a non penetrating round.

The first one is indeed a shotgun sabot round. First brought to the U.S. by Danarms, then bought out and introduced by Winchester---(IRRC). They flew like a dart, but they weren't able to expand much because of the hardness. They were originally made for barricade shooting by police, the ability to penetrate engine blocks/cars.
The 40 S&W is a snap cap, the plastic in the primer pocket is to cushion the FP so it won't break,(won't anyway, but it's insurance).
I've seen the one on the bottom, just can't recall who made/makes it.

Actually I think the .40 might be a Simunition round

That bottom photo bullet looks like a Full metal Jacket with fried chicken as a core...LOL

Yep, propane is better and your cannon does not get sticky!
The first is a Winchester BRI shot gun sabot slug, or an original BRI sabot slug. Very hard, no expansion, and accurate. The second seems to be a home made practice round, as the only other practice rounds I have ever seen are orange plastic. The third is definitely an expensive piece of copper. Build up a pile of that copper for the CASH!
No clue. Any ideas?
The last one looks like Simunition
Obama approved home defense ammo?
