landofficer Posted July 26, 2021 Report Share Posted July 26, 2021 Visited the game at the weekend and only noticed that bio ammo were the only cartridge company making an appearance. Did the major companies avoid it because they would of been grilled about non lead cartridges and the prices. I did have a chat with bio ammo and the blue shot type they have got I think seems to be aimed at non steel proofed guns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enfieldspares Posted July 26, 2021 Report Share Posted July 26, 2021 (edited) That'll be the solution to all that nasty lead then. Use shot that contains among other metals...aluminium. There's a reason folk don't now favour aluminum saucepans and American soldiers no longer carry aluminium water bottles. Guess what that is? And now someone is proposing we use it in shotgun pellets? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7071840/ Edited July 26, 2021 by enfieldspares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
