I thought I done pretty good for a couple hours of hunting and beating off the mosquitoes and ticks! I believe the one big bullett is a .69 caliber French Confederate bullett first one I have ever found are these rare? I would have hunted longer but I about needed a blood transfusion, I have never seen that many man eaters flying around me before next time I go the repellent will be with me!! I just got this Fisher 1270 and I had to try it out, I believe its definetly a keeper!!! I had the 10-1/2" coil on it, and the bulletts were any wheres from 3 -11" deep.
 
That is a beautiful .69 and great pictures too...:thumbup:
 
Thanks Larry could you imagine being on the receiving end of that .69 caliber? God that war had to be gruesome with these things thrown in!
 
Nice finds. :thumbup: We have found a few of those French .69 cals down this way around Port Hudson. They are huge for sure and really a neat and somewhat rare bullet find. Thanks for posting. cch.
 
Great bullet finds!! The 1270 is all I use. Very deep machine. Goes much deeper on iron targets. I think the more you use it the more u will like it. The 8" coil is also very good. Hard to beat those French 69's, good luck on your next hunt!
