Non-lead bullet design and fragmentation

[cubdriver84d]

Third,

While the hysteria over lead bullets is ridiculous on its face, the irony that people are now cool with almost “any” metal as long as it’s not lead shows the ignorance of the whole thing. I suppose heavy metal toxicity isn’t a thing as long as it’s not evil lead.

I’m aware that heavy metal toxicity is a thing but have yet to see any evidence of lead free bullets or shot showing acute toxicity in wildlife like lead does. Care to share any? That said, it wouldn’t surprise me if some of the highly fragmenting copper varmint bullets end up proving to cause copper poisoning in scavengers in the near future.
