Bullet riddled pig?

I bought this pork shoulder at my local farmer's market. Took it out of the fridge to rub and noticed a black spot. Upon closer inspection I found a bullet in the meat. Cut out the black part, removed the bullet, rubbed it, wrapped it and will smoke it in the morning. It looks like a small caliber bullet - in the shoulder? Can't believe it was the coup de grace.
Ever seen anything like this?

Someone's a crappy shot. Shoulda been a better shot and got him in the head. Pig's name was Paulie.

I was gonna blame Travis, but I think he woulda dropped it.

That does look like a pretty small caliber and pigs are tough. Possible it's been in there for quite some time...Finally back in the Badger State!

I would ask them if it was farm raised or wild hog. In Al I don't think they can sell wild hogs as farm raised. Enjoy the cook !! It should be good !!
I went to bed last night mean and woke up meaner !
