    Bye bye cheap ammo.

    Can we just have laser guns instead? Or would they complain about light pollution then?

    There are so, so many issues we as Canadians need to face and confront before we should even consider chicken #### issues like this. Man oh man.

    Flint Michigan has a lead problem. We do not.

    I will switch to lead free ammo when the alternative costs the same or less AND works as well.

    For shotguns, its has to cost the same or less, works as well AND work in fixed full choke barrels

    Till then I am using lead so get working on an alternative.

    Things are changing. Do you really think lead is benign?

    Banning lead ammunition would put a huge dent into my gun club activities. (Black Powder)

    I use cast for d@m near everything else I shoot.

    and then there are other shooting disciplines like, Cowboy Action,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    We use lead in guns for the same reason Gutenberg used it in type: cheap in material cost and fuel; easy to alloy for specific properties.

    I shoot antiques. No lead; no casting, no shooting. Even with lead. some bullets are near unobtanium.

    The antis are always working the angles. Time to buy more ammo.

    Most bullets are copper jacketed, the lead is the core and does not contact the barrel.
