Mastering bullet identification: learn the critical techniques and features necessary to accurately identify different bullet types, often down to their specific manufacturer or period of use, turning you into a seasoned historical detective. On both sides, as is evidenced by the 2 ring confederate hollow point and the two 3 ring union hollow points. both of the round balls are distorted from impact. and the bottom right is one of those cleaner rounds, from the amount of “expansion” it must have really been moving. The minie's reign was short (crimean war to prussian austrian war when it was last was used by a major power) before it was superceded by the cartridge repeater (both rimfire or paper cartridge).

Firearm bullet types of the american civil war detailed with pictures and size comparisons. A particularly deadly ammunition, especially at short range, the round consisted of a .69 caliber soft lead round ball topped by three small diameter "buck shot," any one of which could disable or kill its victim.
