As I read Roger Fuller’s comments, he wasn’t claiming access to or detailed knowledge of the artifacts, just sharing thoughts on, for example, what the mold might be if it made balls of a certain size. It seems clear to me at least that he was speculating in a limited way based on his knowledge of both weapons and Battle Road.

Roger also seems to be warning us that people using musket balls, pistol balls, and buckshot traversed this ground over many years, not just on 19 Apr 1775, so we can’t be sure these are artifacts of “Parker’s Revenge.” Of course, it’s most interesting to think so.
