I understand it's an old dead horse that you're passionate about, but this seems like a tactic.


Indeed, the horse is LONG dead when it comes to shooting lead at waterfowl. Or, for that matter, anywhere waterfowl are likely to congregate. No use fighting a war that we lost long ago. Doves . . . you get the same conditions of heavily concentrated shot fall that you can get when hunting waterfowl . . . but seldom get when hunting other upland birds. That's the basic difference, and it's why we're still able to shoot lead at upland birds in most places. And why I will continue to advocate for lead shot for upland birds . . . unless someone can show me some science I've yet to see, indicating that widely scattered shot fall poses much danger to either upland birds or any other critters.
