With the increased lead bans, I was thinking that I can see this snowballing into a national, or at least a full state by state (or province) ban until there is no lead ammo hunting in all of the US and Canada. I haven't decided yet on how I feel about it. Part of me doesn't want to pay the cost of non toxic ammo, but I worked in the Haz-Mat industry and I know how bad lead really is for people and animals Plus, the enviroment/ecosystem, lead gets into the groundwater. Animals eat grasses, predators/humans eat them and it circles through everything. Or it runs into the streams, lakes, oceans and contaminates fishes. I'm thinking, maybe, long term, it might be the best thing.
