Default Other Non-Lead (Heavi Shot, Bismuth) Shot Issues

Has anyone seen any toxicity data or discussion on the iron-nickel-tungsten Heavi Shot relative to toxic lead and nontoxic steel shot? Based upon these elements, it should be of relatively low-to-no toxicity. In a related manner, have any of you tried the new bismuth shot as a heavy (much more than steel) nontoxic alternative to lead for turkey hunting? If so, how does it pattern?
