Sounds like you don't know very much about how outdoor ranges or hunting works.

Why, because a slashdot story told you so? Is framing a story as "this group is against scientists!" all it takes for you to believe something?

I wish I could give this post a higher score. It is amazing how supposedly smart people will easily fall for something like "OMG u guys, the NRA (remember how we told you those are the bad guys?) is running a campaign to counter another campaign from a bunch of scientists and environmentalists!!!" Scientists good, NRA bad! This is not a new battle. Rabid environmentalists, anti-hunting groups, and anti-gunners have been trying to get the government to ban lead ammo for decades. At this point the panty wetting about lead ammo is just more "omg think of the children" feelgood B.S.
