Three types of Williams Patent bullets, also known as "cleaner bullets", were used by the Union Army during the American Civil War in the standard .58 caliber rifle muskets. There was a fourth developed for use in the Union Repeating or "Coffee-Mill" gun. The inventor was Elijah D. Williams of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, who filed an application for his patent on May 30, 1861. It was issued almost a year later, on May 13, 1862, but field trials on his "improved" bullet had already begun.

  • Three types of Williams Patent bullets, also known as "cleaner bullets", were used by the Union Army during the American Civil War in the standard .58 caliber rifle muskets.

It was issued almost a year later, on May 13, 1862, but field trials on his "improved" bullet had already begun. The concept of the design was that the discharge of the musket would drive the concave disks forward thus expanding the lead bullet against the interior walls of the rifled barrel. (en)
