Oh fine, Wes, I'll get up from my nap.

105/110 -- I agree, perhaps 110 was fired.
115 -- Sharps, carved or short pour.
116/117 -- there are minor differences, M&M pics are bad here.  116 features a slight rebated base for the paper cartridge while the other was probably in a collodion cartridge.

Wes must not like pistol bullets!

121/124 -- Hayes
122 -- Colt new model
123 -- Leet & Hall
125/126 -- Savage
127/129/130 -- Hayes, 129 is fired.
128 -- Eley

142 -- Williams, type I with pin carved off.  Not a special bullet for the Gatling.
144 -- Probably European.
148 -- Possibly a Spencer variant.

I agree with Jim on the 110. I have always thought that was a photo of a fired bullet. No one mentioned the MM-133 and does anyone have a clue or input. Ouch on the MM-148 being a Spencer Variant. I think Dean needs to dig deeper for info on the 148 coming from Selma :'(

I have a non-dug MM144.  Picked it up at a Minnesota gun show.  Lucky me - $4.00
