    Its a load of shit, thats about all fish and game can talk. I like the bit about how they say they followed the international trend to phase out lead in 12g

    8% using 20 g doesn't mean shit ,as how many use 20 g as a upland gun only . Seems to be the trend with my hunting mates/ acquaintances . They still use 12 g on ducks and don't have a problem with steel at all .
    I'm one of those, 12g Steel for Mai Mai shooting on ducks, 20g for upland and jump shooting the backwaters etc. Of course the 12 is used with lead for geese and dry land ducks from the layout bind.
    mikee and Toby like this.
