Thread: Lead Contamination In Game Meat

Be really careful what you wish for.
It is everyone personal decision on what projectiles they want to shoot and what meat they want to eat and feed their family with.I get that.
But understand that the reason to ban lead in projectiles is not only scientific but also another way to go after hunters and gun owners.

Because once a law is introduced to ban copper jacket with lead chore projectiles for hunting in a country, the next step will be to ban the target projectiles.
On the medium to long term that could turn into the closing of your favourite hornady or nosler plant.
And imagine if all lead core projectiles sold in the world where replaced by copper only projectiles, well you would be paying a lot more for them, since Elon Musk and his buddies needs also copper for their production. And it becomes harder and more expensive to extract.

And of all the hunting people that I have known who died in the last decade, and where eating regular game meat and waterfowl, none have died of lead poisoning or seemed to have been affected by lead during the course of their life.
Sugar, fat and high cholesterol were the predominant factors.
