Thread: Lead bullets and their risk to human health

They are extremely accurate with explosive terminal performance, the only downside is the lower BC which is par for the course with monos

We donate a lot of venison & the lead topic has come up from time to time, but it is a non event because we i only use copper projectiles

Have you used the Maker in .224 at .223 speeds @Kiwi Greg?
