Yeah I've shot them.   Too light, no energy past 20 yards.  

Have you tried the Gamo PBA all copper?  Pretty heavy weight.

I shot some I bought on sale for 177, they flew pretty good out of my break barrel.

 Guys I brought this to your attention because it can happen here too. Just takes one foot in the door and then they can push it in.

Oh I know.   I only gave you crap about it because you have given me crap about "following the science". 

Things like this are why I'm an incurable skeptic, and question everything.

I have 8 big lead weights that I think came from a divers belt.  Like these.

Save them, we may need to make bullets.

You can tell they’re very “clean” or pure.  Shiny.

Tungsten is almost twice as dense as lead.  Time for tungsten pellets for the air rifles crowd.

              Not cheap.  Lead is natural in the environment.  Go to your gun safe or where you keep your ammo. What percentage is lead based? Are you ready to give it up and go unleaded? So maybe you are possibly no longer into shooting sports and really do not care anymore. Does this mean the rest should be penalized? 

    I know you fish. Are you using all unleaded? Rick, you know I am not personally picking on you here. I am putting this out there to all sportsmen and sportswomen.

        Again, please show performance and price. Proof is in the pudding.

             Hey Rick, do you remember the lead pipes in town?  Eat on the square in the cafes?  I remember working on those pipes during my stint on the gas and water crew before my lineman apprenticeship. 

  Maybe we now know why we are like we are? 🤪I know we had our daily allotment of Pb.
