[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2423731, member: 30902"] Unfortunately if you hunt public land it's a certainty that sooner or later lead will be banned completely which is why I started experimenting with mono's about six years or so back. The most consistent problem I've seen with them is a failure to expand resulting in bullets penciling through. Unfortunately most things you add to copper to make alloys hardens the copper instead of softening it so it takes some pretty tricky engineering to solve that problem. Peregrine Bullets was the first to really master that and I'm really hoping others will as well or once mono's are mandatory on public land a lot of game is going to be lost as a result. [/QUOTE]
