I do want to point out one issue that the paper missed, though, in its explanation of non-lead alternatives. Last year I used Winchester #7 & #8 steel shot, at about six bucks per box, and shot my best. I know that non-lead alternatives for rifle ammunition run 2-3 times that of lead, but shotgun alternatives can be as cheap as lead. Great link to a good story.
