[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 898693, member: 48043"] Don't worry about it too much. Most lead in the small arms industry is reclaimed lead. If the NRA isn't going crazy over this (and they aren't) I'd wait a spell and see it play out. The other nafta countries don't have to play ball with our EPA, so this may be a rare occurance where nafta helps. I'd say it will be an upward ebb on prices, but no where near the end for lead core bullets.
