Has anybody done any experimenting with a viable alternative to lead roundballs for hunting?
I may be going on a premium deer hunt next year in a lead-free zone and want to use my ML rifle.
I have a couple of those ITX r/balls. Not sure what they are made of but they're too hard to scratch with your fingernail. Loaded and shot one that measured .489" with a .010 patch and it was very tough to start. Will need to buy some more to play with.
I've wondered about melting Bismuth shot into r/balls but I'm not sure if it's still available.
