I've made about 5-6 or so of these boards over the years with recovered bullets from game. This one is the most recent, and I kept the best notes on them. On the back is a paper with more details for each bullet shown.

As you can see there have been quite a few bullets collected as this is about 1/4 or so of them. For the most part it was quite difficult to recover beautiful perfect mushroomed bullets before about 1995. The cup and core bullets available then were typically twisted bits of jacket and little bits of lead!

Once X and bonded core came on the market, well then it got more interesting!
