[QUOTE="skr, post: 3046089, member: 85885"] I decided to spend way too much time and money doing a thorough test of factory non-lead hunting ammunition. Check it out below and let me know what you think. [URL unfurl="true"]https://open.substack.com/pub/artisanammo/p/65-creedmoor-non-lead-test[/URL] Short summary: [LIST] [*]6.5 Creedmoor tested in a light hunting rifle with Proof carbon wrapped barrel [*]5x5 shots per ammunition brand. [*]11 different products (10 non-lead, 1 lead control) [*]Mean radius MOA group sizes at 100 yards [*]Muzzle velocity standard deviation via Labradar [*]Calculated hit percentages at 500m/800m (using WEZ) [/LIST] Bottom line if you don't want to read it all: I'll be using Federal Trophy Copper 120gr when non-lead is required by law.
