Lead bullets tend to fragment into tiny pieces when they strike a target and can spread through an entire carcass.
Not true! ive never seen a bullet used for deer hunting yet that will fill the entire carcass w lead pieces! also it should say, they CAN fragment, ive seen many recovered bullets in perfect mushroom cond with almost nothing missing
Nonlead ammunition is more expensive, but Wetzler estimates it only costs about $15 more per box
ONLY?! they say it like im a money tree!!!
The press release stated that “no conclusive evidence exists that shows hunters and target shooters using traditional [lead] ammunition have caused a decline in the population of raptors.” NSSF also said the lead in bald eagles could have come from other sources, such as landfills, paint, or industrial activities.
Sorry but im not buying this lead ammo kills eagles BS, i agree with the NSSF
