They are trying that silly tack here in Britain at the moment. I've eaten more than my fair share of shot game without any problems. If environmental lead was such a problem then where are all the dead and dying birds and animals that live around long established clay shooting grounds? Trouble is these things are started by groups that are anti hunting as they know that this would just about finish most types of shooting. Steel is not much good and cannot be used in older guns. If that left Bismuth then the world production would not be able to cater for the demand and cartridges would become prohibitively expensive; same with tungsten polymer. We would be back to hunting with a catapult and pebbles; until that was banned also. Lagopus.....
