 If you are in Indiana, find a library that has a history of "Indiana in the Civil War" series of books. Most states had their CW histories written. Many times it will give the unit mustering date and its equipage and where it was equipped. The Enfield 58 bullet is .577 the Springfield 58 is .575. The Enfield type was preferred as it would take both types of 58 cal bullets.. My replica Enfield is 575, not like the originals. The Union bought 400k Enfield type weapons.
