I especially look forward to hearing about the sub-.30 cal. rounds' performances. It would be great for your 'Shootinest Gentman' to get a round that expands properly out of his .270.

A lead ammo ban may be the outcome that they want to see. I just hope reason prevails, but the only way it will is if MN sportsmen get informed and get vocal. There are constructive approaches that should appropriately address the health concerns of individuals and the State's level of accountability for health and welfare.

Minnesota's an interesting state - pretty damned liberal, but very, very hunting-oriented. I was pleased last year to see how quickly the Legislature smacked down the proposed dove-hunting ban. But lead's another issue... Well, that’ll be interesting to watch. Minnesota’s an interesting state – pretty damned liberal, but very, very hunting-oriented.
