Destry:
Always the resident "bad-boy", aren't we? I hate to say it, but I suspected it would come to this when we were saddled with the bedamnedable non-tox option all those years ago. The "camel's-nose under-the-tent" argument made over the lead-issue then may still come back to bite us it seems. The simple truth is that hunting is far-more fun when you're not looking over your shoulder. The fine is/was substantial (~$150), but that may indeed not be so much anymore when you figure the overall cost of the $4 shell option. I suppose you could even carry a few non-tox loads in your front pockets for the tester if someone actually shows up, and burn lead otherwise? Perish the thought!!!
