I was cleaning my room up a bit and looked in this container and found this bullet that I found way back when I was a little kid at an unmarked shooting range. This thing is pretty big, just wondering what gun shoots this bullet.

Bullet 1
Bullet 2


Yes, I know the pictures are blurry, but my camera's almost dead so I just didn't use the flash which has the fastest shutter speed.

Alright, we're good now

That bullet looks ancient. Where did you get it?

I just picked it up while I was a little kid, probably 8 years ago or so, it was at an unmarked shooting range out in the country that my dad and I used to visit every once in a while. I'd always pick up the bullets that were fired already and get a little education but this one is pretty big.. That's a screwdriver bit right next to it on the right.
 
Yep, that's a muzzle loader bullet. Specifically a minie ball. Although it's hard to judge from the pics, I'd say it is probably a 45 caliber.

Yeah I was guessing somewhere around the range of 45-50 Caliber, but I'm not really too much of a gun person so I didn't know for sure.

no sh!t. dunno how you expect anyone to tell.

yep... it's a ****** nikon coolpix from 4 or 5 years ago.... It was awesome back then but now it's not so great. I want a D70 but that's gonna take quite a while before I can get something like that!
