Hmmm, some interesting posts. I live in Ca. and do hunt in some of the "lead free" zones; but, the whole state isn't lead free YET. That could change.
As to lead free bullets, I shoot both the Barnes TSX and Hornady's GMX and have had very good results on paper and in the field[mule deer and antelope]. These are very good bullets. They are longer than the same weight lead bullets, but after talking to techs at both companies, I load them to the same OAL as regular bullets. Calibers are 25-06, 270 Win and 30-06. Hope this helps.
