Dug this round out of the dirt behind my target for a closer examination. Can you identify it?

I'll give the answer in a day or so.

Yup, I agree with the thumbnails--it's definitely a 30.06--unless Ox has put that on there to throw us off.

it appears to be a .30 Cal. round that was brought on the American market by Springfield in 1906.

Talking
Due to the massive interest in my question, I'll give you all an "F" for peeking at the test answer.(ha)

Not really, I'm just not too sharp on computer stuff...as is obvious. You guys sure know how to make me feel stoopid!

LOL you just posted it...I looked at 3 thumbnails trying to get details BEFORE I saw the title at the bottom! I think that means I would win the stoopid contest Ox!

BTW...I know from some of your posts what caliber ya prefer...So I was pretty certain it was a 30.06 from the beginning.
I will go one farther and say that 30.06 bullet was fired from a beautiful Rem700 with a jeweled bolt! LOL
