The bullet shaped ones measure about 8 mm across and 14 mm high and weigh about 8 gramms not grains

the gray ones measure about 7 mm across and 15 mm high and weigh about 6 gramms

7and 8mm hand gun prodjectiles fmj(max penetration) and something similar to a wad cutter(max stopping power, impact).

the ones on the left look like pistol/handgun ( 7.62 para??)

the ones on the right look like solid shot but are obviously too small so muzzel loader could be quite close

( smooth bore,hence the rifling on the round).

 

a wad cutter should not have rifling,and should be concave at the tip.

 

an exact measurement of the projectiles should help a little further.

a pound coin being 22mm( approx)and the estimation of both projetiles( from the pic using a piece of paper :whistling: ) would be around 7.5 mm.

i would stick with 7.62 parabellum on the left.

 

a wadcutter should in my experiance be concave(front end) .410 being 10.4mm i find this unlikely unless "sabot" projected.

 

go on give us a clue :clapper:
