Very cool! DNA testing would most certainly be interesting, if that was still possible. It might have missed its mark, or been a through and through. Who knows?
Adobe Walls bullet from Chaffee
Chaffee sent me this bullet some time back that's from Adobe Walls. If he sees this I'll let him explain how he got it since I forgot what he told me. The 45-70 and 45-90 brass is unrelated to it. Gun is a .45-70 Shiloh #3 half octagon tapered.

Hey there Matt;
That looks like a bullet that's skidded off a fairly soft surface like grass or something similar. Perhaps Thadd knows more about that aspect of that bullet.
Interesting though, and a really nice rifle too Matt.
All the best my friend.
