You can go on and on about lead shot bans. Do what you can to prevent stupid laws. But in the end a majority will prevail even if they are an uninformed majority.

I for one will not be sitting home knashing my teeth over, or quit hunting like many did when steel was mandated for waterfowl. I'll still be hunting and shooting. I have a good stash of Bismuth shot for upland and waterfowl so I can still shoot my beloved hammer shotguns and I have a little CZ Bobwhite stashed in the safe, and upland, waterfowl and target steel shells.under the loading bench. When my state at the time was contemplating going lead-free I bought lead-free bullets for my rifles and worked up loads for them, they kill just fine.

Luckily I'm in the sunset years of my life, I have no problem, just admiring some of my old shotgun and shooting new ones if it keeps me in the field. THEY only win when you give up.


After the first shot the rest are just noise.
