[QUOTE="oldpilot, post: 1742847, member: 87110"] Drew an Arizona Kiabab tag 3 years ago, 10 day hunt. The catch is non lead bullets or take the whole ungutted animal to a check station for inspection. (California Condor breeding station is in 12B) If you elected nonlead AZFGD supplied 1 box of ammo with Barnes bullets. We hunted for bucks 5 x 5 or larger, passing up a lot of nice bucks! We helped a number of other hunters by showing them bucks we weren't going to shoot. We watched 13 guys make good solid shots that put the deer on the ground but within a minute we're back on their feet and not recovered. 2 guys we helped made brain shots and their deer we're down and dead. The first of those fellas told us he was making a head shot so he didn't lose his meat. The lesson I learn was that from 223 to 338 Norma mag the result was loss of animal when using coppers.
