I know New Hampshire banned lead in fishing weights years ago , and other states were talking about it.
Many states have banned lead shot for waterfowl hunting.
Isn't steel harder on gun barrels than lead?
I believe Bismuth is replacing lead in fishing weights .
I though it was being used in making shot at one time.
Think something about it not forming round shot was a problem.

My point is that there are two problems when it comes to students and trap shooting if lead is banned. Cost for an alternative shot and availability. The other problem is with the elimination of E-tabs in MN. Our sportmens club donates to 5 local schools funding their trap teams. Our revenues will be reduced dramatically the end of the year when E-tabs as we know them are eliminated in MN. That means the amount of financial support we will have available for these trap teams will be half of what we are donating now.


The difference between animals and humans is that animals would never let the dumbest ones lead the pack.

I've got a good idea what a pull tab is, but just what is an E tab?

Right. It's a computer generated pull tab. Much more popular than the paper pull tabs are.
