The smaller piece of the bullet was found inside the third jug, The main piece of the bullet went through the third jug, and bounced off the fourth jug without damaging it. It required searching with the metal detector to find it, and was located beside the horse hidden in the grass. The fourth and fifth jugs were reused for the next test. The main bullet weighs 103 grain. The smaller piece weighs 18.6 grain.
