WalMart and others keep selling lead shot. I thought there was a province-wide ban on the stuff. I can imagine the 7 1/2 still going for clays, but who is buying the 4's and other game loads and why is the stuff still being sold? Anybody know?

Couldn't tell you about BC but I would imagine it is only banned for hunting i.e. I doubt it is illegal to "posess". Their are many uses for lead shot-- works well in snadbag type rifle rests or any application where weight may be desired.

Are you really "asking" are just trolling in new waters?

The political forum is for trolling. You don't think guys go there to agree do you? At least I've never seen it.

I see I misphrased my question. WalMart wetc don't sell shot by itself, at least not here. They're selling fully loaded hunting ammo with lead shot.

In most states it's primarily only banned in Waterfowl Hunting areas.

The primary reason it is still being sold is because there is many other species being hunted w/ it in many areas.

Here in the South we hunt Rabbit, Squirrel, Turkey, and Varmints w/ lead shot, most commonly 4s, 5s, and 6s. Pheasant is another that alot of people shoot w/ lead 6s.


Not sure if you all can hunt these animals or can hunt them w/ lead but, that's the way it is here in the states.
