Yup.
There have been shortages since Obama was elected.
It isnt rocket science to buy components that work in bulk.
Everyone had the same opportunity.
How much are you willing to pay for ammo?

Nobody is forced to shoot deer.
Stocked up when 1995?? Copper deer projectiles has been around £1 per bullet since before obama was in!
And I did stock up, bullet excluded I'm loading deer ammunition for £0.15 per round, but that is no good to anybody getting into shooting now who didn't have the opportunity before.
True, would be much better if people just gave up shooting

Will the target clubs now be closing down?
People who are on forestry leases for example.
Not licensing, I did query the whole lead free thing with my FEO, the answer was simply that they were there to administer the current law, lead free isn't law - yet!
BASC impose this for their stalking scheme in Arran.

the 2 guys that help me out, have got enough to last 4/5 years, i got wind of shortages a year or two ago from a friend in the gun trade, i called them and they went to their local gun shops and basically cleared them out of everything they needed that makes their rifles shoot, so even if I run out I’ll just go fishing and leave it to them!
So unfortunately you snooze you loose, like i said even if bullets hit £10 around for hunting projectiles for putting meat in the freezer and into the Game Dealer, You’re still covering your ammunition costs so really what’s the problem?
Your going to have to dig deep and make sacrifices to shoot your rifle, We all have to make sacrifices in life to do what we want to do!
But I do genuinely feel sorry for those coming into deer stalking, I certainly wouldn’t want to do it again, too much hassle, too much ball ache!
I’m very fortunate to have done what I’ve done over the last 20 years, I’ve done more and killed more deer than a lot of deerstalkers can even dream of!

I asked how the Tunnel would get on if lead was banned indoors and was told it won't be if all lead is collected.
hope so...more powder for us...,
Thats becuase its an FLS lease and all carcasses go to Highland Game..
I’d rather hurl a lump o’steen!

I believe the relative buzzwords are 'contained & recovered'.
The vast majority of indoor ranges will already be doing this. Outdoor ranges with backstops will need them digging out and reinstated at specific intervals. Anyone who shoots on MOD ranges will probably be aware that the number of rounds expended is reported to the Range Controller when the detail is completed and when the round count hits a certain number, the backstop will be de-leaded.
Stay calm ... and carry on!

Only if lead banned.

Fair enough, but it's a valid example.
