[QUOTE="adam32, post: 1245493, member: 9467"] I'm not going to be for or against a particular bullet, but what I will be against is the Gov't telling us/me what we can and can't hunt with. Like here in California, a portion of the State is "lead free" and the entire Statewide law goes into effect in 2019. Why? Because of the California Condor, junk science pointed to hunters leaving carcasses in the field and then the Condor eating the carcass made the Condor get lead poisoning and die. The open pit lead mines in the region had nothing to do with it, only hunters leaving carcasses. So now, since the Condors populations are skyrocketing (which of course they aren't ) the entire State needs to go lead free even though the closest Condor sighting from my hunting zone is 80+ air miles away. But the bleeding heart Liberal's in SF and LA have a lot of power over politicians in Sacramento so they got the Statewide laws passed. And it begs the question, if it is SO detrimental to the Condors and now other "scavengers", then why have the law go into effect 3+ years down the road? Maybe it's not about the animals and more about controlling hunting/shooting... [/QUOTE]
