Pray tell us all about this: sounds fascinating to me!
Then again, maybe it isn't to others here, so you miught want to post it in the Non Airgun section.

Most times I go out I find some pistol or musket shot and probably now have a few hundred...I do curse airgun pellets though, so small, they take some separating from the mud....
Favourite find is a Bronze Age axe head dated about 1500 BC...lovely to look at and handle...

I think that is fascinating! I was considering getting a metal detector: problem is, restrictions on where you can use it. Public land's a no-no, and I own only a city backyard!Not too much to tell Jim...I've done metal detecting on and off since the mid seventies and have found hoards...of rubbish!!!..lol!!

I'm lucky in that the area I live in is rich in history and I have two farms I can wander over as I please....also my detecting buddy seems to have permission on about half the farms in Suffolk....I think that is fascinating!
