TM-25
Large nose cast 3 Ring bullet found mainly in Corinth, Mississippi. I have just dubbed the name as a Texas Troops 69/70 Caliber due to the close appearance of the Texas Troops. Tom shows three of these in his book with all being dug in Corinth as well as mine.
.699 x 1.205 x 777 (Cavity depth .452).
Dug in Corinth, Mississippi by PIA.
I would like to hear from others that have dug this bullet or have it in their collections.
TM-26
MM-407 - I have placed this bullet in the Trans-Mississippi Theatre due to most being found in Louisiana. We have had several threads on this bullet on this forum as well as the old forum. Welcome comments.

No dig location available on mine.

I only know of this bullet being dug in Arkansas.
I have included the Gomez and Mills Multi Ring Sharps with the TM Bullets with the majority found in Missouri, Arkansas, and a few in North Mississippi. I do not have a MM-192 at the moment and the difference between the MM-192 and 193 is the presence of a band at the top of the rings on the MM-193. The MM-192 (TT 105) and MM-193 (TT 104) are both 44 caliber bullets.

I have finished what I have in the way of Trans-Mississippi Bullets and haven't covered several I don't have. I want to thank Mike for the Fagan, Churchill, Round Ball, Delvigne, and Hindman with striations photos to post.
Tom Stelma lists and has photos of many more that are under the Trans-Mississippi section of his book and I would like to hear information on those bullets. Most are forum members. I have only been collecting for about 15 years and I make a lot of mistakes and probably have on this post/thread. Any information on bullets pro or con is appreciated so one and all can become more aware with accurate information on the finest bullets of the ACW.
Hope to see a lot of comments, photos, locations and stories of the same and different TM Bullets.
