Yeah - can't see that happening any time soon. We are in a predicament. If F&G admit that steel shot has lead to more wounding, then the "twig and tweets" will use that against us. If we propose to go back to lead, all the old research from countries where a lot of shooting is at "duck clubs" over rice fields etc where ducks dabble, will be trotted out. I fear there is no going back unless there is some compelling evidence to support the change. The only way that could happen is by a big change in the F&G councils. Which leads me back to -- who voted??
