Just to add to our conversation, I looked up the discussion of the "Tower-Sargent" bullet on the old forum and found the attached picture posted there by budd@greene.xtn.net with the comment "Here's a picture of a bullet that matches up well with a M&M 362 Tower-Sergants. Measurments are 0.58 x 0.97 inches. This bullet is not carved nor whittled on.....just for an visual aid. By the way where does the Towers-Sergants come from anyways????"

The "Tower Sergeant" is a type of .577 Enfield. All of this nomenclature is based off of the old English system. There really wouldn't have been a specific bullet for this gun but it would have to measure .577 like an Enfield or three ringer.
