Help identifying a bullet...

[CWLeadManiac]

I picked this up cheap on Ebay, the seller had no information and I'm trying to figure out what it is. It's .52 caliber, .96in tall, has a solid base and what appear to be 2 grooves. Any help would be appreciated!!

Way to much oxidation to see just what it is.

Yeah, it's pretty rough. I'm glad it was cheap! I had to use a magnifying glass to make sure it was grooves I was seeing. I checked my abbreviated version of the T&T handbook but nothing close was listed. Thanks for the reply!

It looks to have a rebated base.

Pictures of the base may help, it appears fired, which makes it more difficult to see rings etc.

Here are two more pics, one of the base and the best pic I could get of the rings.

I believe it to be M&M 43; I identify bullets using the Thomas brothers books since they seem to have more recent knowledge and I am acquainted with Jim, who has helped me tremendously over the years. T&T #113

Thanks buddy! I appreciate it! I was hoping it was something a bit more exotic but, like I said, I'm thankful that I bought it cheap.
