Whether the anti-gun looneys are thinking this through with a final objective of a total ban on all lead bullets for any purpose or not, doing it one step at a time and starting with hunters 1st will eventually get there. And if all ammo goes to the solid monolithic copper alloy bullets, then shooting is basically dead because of the cost. Sure, the cost doesn't matter for Barnes TTSX bullets when used only for hunting but if that was all you had for all your guns then it gets into some serious money. Few are going to go to the range and shoot 50 or 100 rounds every month of even a couple times a year with such expensive ammo.
