I quite agree with you Norm, one slight clarification the 5 years is a proposal not a done deal.

They reckon 2000 tonnes of lead per year is shot in to the environment, I'd love to know the breakdown of the figures.

re the legal limits my Scorpion sub 12 .25 doing 11.6-ish with a selection of lead pellets, only gave around 8pfe with the JSB Pb-free
it's another issue with them being so hard, they cannot expand to seal in the barrel.
