Hunted Out? NO! Digging Civil War Relics by the Handful!

WOW!! Poppin those bullets out like an assembly line!!! Thank You for sharing the Adventure!!!

Nice pile of bullets BW. Love bullets and artillery in wood.

You have the best videos. That was a great day. That doesn't happen often here in Tennessee.

Man! What an incredible day Walker! Congrats buddy!

Awesome!

Another fantastic video, those old boys sure wasted a lot of ammo, do you think they may have discarded it for being damp ?

Not just another video, they will never end these relics will still be found when we are all dead and gone your kids will still be finding these good luck its fascinating to us across the pond.

That was a fun hunt Walker, yes there will always be something to find as long as you feel good about it it's all that matters! The bullets that have powder on them or in the conicals usually indicates that the ammo got wet & were discarded, a ton of fun to dig that way as the number of men sitting around that campfire could be numerous & the possibilitys endless, congrats on a successful dig!

That was great. If those ole boys had shot as many bullets as they dropped the war would have ended much sooner than it did. Nice hunt👍

Bullet Fever!

What a killer day!

Uh Rah Walker.

Another reason the relics can look corroded is a decaying body.

Definitely not tired of watching you dig the same thing! What an incredible day! Never stop digging there! Love seeing the bullets in wood your Dad found and hearing the lessons he taught you.

As usual excellent video Walker

Excellent intro. If you're on it stay with it. I would continue digging bullets looking for that bigger prize, but if I didn't find it, i was still saving history. Enjoyed the story in the wrap up.

Absolutely incredible, great video

THIS is so enjoyable!!!!!! Jay from Hudson Valley NY

Maybe you need to file a claim for a newly discovered lead mine! Incredible...

Could I join you guys on a hunt

Have you ever read a period account of them discarding cartridges like this? It seems so wasteful and I'm fascinated by the reason why.

Incredible! I would like to find just one. Maybe one day soon. Congrats!

wow great day

My word what a hunt!

One of those days you hate to walk away. Preach it. Congrats

Wow! Just wow……..………Wow! That is crazy.

I want to go to Cold Harbor

Moon phases have been theorized to have an effect on metal detecting. Maybe you just hit it at the right time on this hunt.

Good afternoon, Walker. There is nothing like a "Great " day relic hunting. That feeling driving back home tiered wore out, but Happy feeling history in my soul .😊 God bless

I am guessing that the bullets were either damp or very wet, and the soldiers either dumped them or buried them so as not to be used by their enemy.

Awesome recoveries.

Bless you bw have not been getting notifications for long time great to happen upon you again

Man I have to get up there before I hit 70

watching from hangtown California, that's a lot of bullets

Great to see you back BW! You keep digging and we'll keep watching! Awesome day of saves! Take care Brother and God bless!

Congratulations Battlefield Walker what a great day, I never get tired of watching you dig relics, I love digging bullets but I've never dug that many in a day, hats off to you you killed it today

Walk, do you have any theories about why you are reading such great signals now and weren't reading anything in previous hunts here?

I think the most I got out of one hole was around 80 Federal bullets in Stafford and once got over 40 Confederate bullets buried in a haversack about two feet deep in a trench line over in Chesterfield. One of the coolest finds was 10 three ringers still laying together as they were wrapped along with 12 percussion caps. Obviously where a soldier had dropped a 10 round pack of ammunition. Congrats on the good finds. I have many happy memories of Cold Harbor. Never dug anything fantastic there but always found lots of bullets frags and case shot balls.

I also hear you about missed targets. I think sometimes ground conditions change and hide many deep targets that can be heard once the ground changes again later. I remember hunting a camp in Stafford that we beat to death over 4 or 5 years when a friend of mine heard a rare decent signal right out in the open that was five eagle cartridge box strap plates buried together over 2 feet deep.

Great video especially like the intro and the story of your dad… 60 bullets .. great day !
