Switch to the all copper Barnes bullets. They usually pass completely thru anyway. Double protection for an non-existant risk. Perfect!

Its only a matter of time before someone comes up with the idea that some animal that's near extinction is dying from copper poisoning[:@]
Can't use lead- it poisonous
can't use steel- it causes forst fires
can't use copper- its poisonous too
can't use polymers- they are cop killerz

Copper and zinckills bacteria so it should keep them animals from dying from infection once shot. How humain can we get? May be bullets need to be coated with antibiotics and novicain too?
How come for the last 300 years there has been no issue but now there suddenly is? There is most likly less game shot today than when people hunted for exsistance and less lead flying around as well.

If lead were bad for you, fishing sinkers wouldn't have those little tab thingies on the back making them easy to open with your teeth, and be soft enough to squash them back on the line with those same God given utensils.
