    Heading that way,but some Game Dealers keep pushing the date back. With most of Deer head and neck shot I can’t see the issue with lead bullets

    I'd like someone to provide quality data that clearly shows that hunters are dieing of lead poisoning.

    Bet I have a very long wait.

    Hunt safe, look after the bush & plug more pests. The greatest invention in the history of man is beer.

    Made it to my mid 50's after eating rabbit/pheasant/partridge shot with lead probably twice a week from wo to 17 on the farm. That is without walking round for hours with half a dozen .22 air rifle slugs in my mouth ready to go for the next pest that needed annoying.

    Have been accused of being somewhat grouchy at times by the wife but personally i think that is just her.

    Will let you if anything changes.
