Lowell you ever read Capooths book "The Golden Age of Waterfowling"....they started trying to get lead shot outlawed for duck hunting in the early 1900's.
Isn't that before weird Science and Green piece ?

Best I can figure...It was because of the concentrations of lead that were occuring at the duck hunting honey holes.

Isn't lead one of the most common metals on the planet ?

I'm having problems seeing how an upland hunter is going to ever throw enough lead in one spot to make any difference ?

Gun Clubs clean up their ranges...so where's the beef with lead shot ?
