    I think the legal wording refers to "lead shot" so pellets would potentially be a bypass of the legal issue but the moral, ethical and environmental issue remains - don't shoot lead into water.... Even though we've all done it in the past.

    Well like I said you could still do water plinking using a decent Watergun, you can get ones with enough oomph and big enough for Adult hands (also not looking too toy like) that can knock targets over etc, can't harm anything or cause a legal issue and the Ammos near infinate.

    Pretty much my take on it. There's been enough environmental pollution over the years, no need to keep adding to it. Just because arsenic in wallpaper and asbestos in everything was all the rage in the past doesn't justify needless pollution in the present.
