This one might be from a larger hotchkiss shell than the other sabot I am offering. You can see some rifling that reminds me of the 3.6" hotchkiss bolt. But it could be from the standard 3" shell. The lead sabot is appx. 3" across at its widest point and about 1.75" top to bottom.

Relic was dug on private property near Antietam by Mr. Ed Stotler of rural Williamsport, Md.
