Reclaimed lead?


Recommended Posts

They used to collect it from the busy clay ranges but there is too much steel in it now. On a busy DTL range nearly all the shot would be landing in virtually the same place and you could pin tarps out on the ground and collect plenty

 

Sounds like a great plan, quick question how would a person figure out where the shot was landing in order to put the tarps down?

 

We shoot over a grassy field (quite high grass)

If you stand there the shot falls harmlessly like hailstones, at Bisley beyond the clay ranges the ground is grey with fallen shot. A 50 bird DTL with a hundred entrants is nearly 300lbs of shot, and that can happen virtually every day in the summer.
