    Beware what you wish for. Because it could very well be bye bye eld-m and eldx in the next decade like it is about to happen in the UK.
    Does anybody know of anyone dying of lead poisoning via bullet fragment in their meat in the last forty or fifty years ?

    None.

    There are agendas involved here. You have to be wary of who presents this kind of evidence. Remember the NZ scientists who presented a dead native bird to the press, that had eaten a bullet and died from lead poisoning? They also produced the bullet allegedly they had found in the carcass, and that they claimed had poisoned it - and it was apparent it had never been fired! It was an unfired projectile with not a mark on it.
