Confederate Manufacture Bullet Cavalry note the slant cut nosecastThis was a tough bullet to identify. Pull out your handy Thomas Ready Aim Fire page 32 Confederate manufacture bullet. You will find this bullet to be in excellent dug condition. The patina is a real nice white color. Notice the high base first ring & as Thomas states the nose sprue removed apparently by hand with a knife. The cavity is a cone & deep inside the cavity a ring in the cavity wall can be seen. Measures about 0. 52 x 1. 03 inches.
