So has anyone else found a survey from the DNR in their mailboxes lately regarding a ban on lead shot?

We got one yesterday and I filled it out and its in the mail.

Just curious if anyone has anyone thoughts or insight into this issues.


Thanks.

No I wished they'd send me one though.

None here either.  As far as the Ban it doesn't bother me one way or the other as long as people are using lead shot where it's legal to use it.

I haven't seen one in my mail. I really would hate to lose lead for grouse hunting, but I guess I would opt for a Tungsten-Matrix or Hevi-shot. I wonder about trap/skeet ranges though, would lead be banned for that?
