[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1245691, member: 30902"] Political agendas unfortunately to a very large extent drive what passes for science today. My favorite professor in college told me one time that the first thing to consider when reading any study is who paid for it and what there agenda is. He was ahead of his time in realizing that and considered to be something of a heretic by a lot of other professors for having the guts to speak out. The anti gun and anti hunting folks are quite content to attempt to do via regulation what they cannot do through legislation and I have no doubt whatsoever that much of the anti lead agenda is part and parcel of same. What's driving it however is largely irrelevant because we can't change the direction we're headed. I'm just glad that we have manufacturers like yourself who can see where the tide is taking us and are getting out there ahead of the rest of the industry in working hard to come up with viable non toxic alternatives. Personally I think that at some point the answer is going to be found in tungsten cores and copper allow jackets but we're not there yet. I only know of one manufacturer that has done some work along those lines and so far hasn't been very successful in that attempt due to I think a balance problem with their original design. [/QUOTE]
