motty Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 I use copper plated steel loads for wildfowling, so It must be non toxic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beretta28g Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 I think tho copper plated lead is still classed as toxic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spook Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 Copper is the active ingredient in the antifouling on my boat, it kills algae and a myriad of aquatic organisms very effectively ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derbyduck Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 lead water pipes where replaced with copper ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildfowler.250 Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 Was it not the Winchester lead shells that used to have a copper coating or something? Heard they were very good. But as I understood it..still counted as toxic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted November 23, 2013 Report Share Posted November 23, 2013 Yep, copper plating helps pattern but is V costly and as the plating was thin the lead was still accessible so still toxic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
