When are authorities going to face the fact that lead is a much better conservator of wildlife than steel. I guess it's true that a few waterfowl die from lead ingestion. However, it has been my experience that a very large number die from steel wounds and are never recovered. This nation has become paranoid about lead anywhere.

One thing that bothers me about many of the responses to this topic is most seem to be just sitting around passively waiting for the antis to take away our lead. Wouldn't it be a lot better to present a unified front for preserving it?
