Civil War bullet?

[TerryEastTexas]

I found this one this morning. The Springfield on the left and a Enfield on the right. But the one in the middle is the one I have a question about. It's .53 cal. and weighs 466 grains. It has rifling on it also. Any help will be appreciated.

Base is open.

I looked at the Nathan Bedford Forrest .54 caliber Enfield and it seems to match both in length and diameter.
