One of those foolish NY laws.
You can shoot a 165 gr .40 bullet out of a sabot, but I can't use my White 410 with a 420 gr conical.

Do they have a specific reason why you can't use the conical? Ray

Must be .44 cal or larger bore size. The White .410 is too small.

Breech that ban got shot down,thank God.It would have banned BRASS from fishing lures,because of the trace amt of lead in the alloy.Still lead shot is not legal for fishing(under 1/2oz) All this lead ban crap is based on lies and eco-nazi agenda.

The problem lies with the career politicians.Their first task is how to get reelected.We need term limits,but good luck getting them to kill their own golden goose.Many an honest man has been elected to office,far too few remained that way.

Yes it is all BS lol. but it takes a lot of time and $ to fight all it in court. average individuals do not have the resources. you need a large organization like the NRA or a large bullet mfg. as i said our deer herds are declining at a alarming rate and they spend untold amounts of money on condor research.in the early in the 80's California's deer herds were massive... not now..

So I ook a look at Lehigh bullets for the first time. Pretty cool stuff. Do you think a guy could make an all brass bullet soft enough to load as a conical, with no sabot so we could use it here in CO./
