Correct.
The only things you can't shoot with lead is certain waterfowl within two hundred meters of a body of water over a certain size. Not sure what size but it's not very big.
You can still shoot certain waterfowl ie Canadian geese over water with lead also.
Other than that lead is quite legal.
There may be some harebrained private land rules which differ to that but they are not law.
