Box of lead shot $7
Box of Stell shot $20

I would say out law of lead has driven the price of duck hunting a lot, my dad said they woud get boxes of lead shot for $2 a box and when Steel came out it was around $15 a box

we all know lead is cheaper than steel.. thanks for stating the obvious.

all im saying is that there are more factors that contribute to the price increase of duck hunting.

Sure, but let me put it this way. Suppose that it were certain that the price accessing to land for deer hunting were to increase by 1000% over the next 20 years, would that make it reasonable to ban the use of lead in deer hunting bullets even though that might also increase ammo prices by 1000% over the same time period?

Do the non-governmental factors driving up the cost of land access justify or mitigate the governmental factors driving up the cost of ammunition? Of course not.

Compared with the overall costs of fishing, banning lead in lures and sinkers will only be an incremental cost to the average angler. So are we all in agreement to ban lead in lures and sinkers?

I agree. All im saying is, now days there are MANY factors that contribute to the higher price people are paying to duck hunt, and it is not just because lead is banned.

kind of like when gas goes up and then out comes a BS excuse that the prices of oil are up because some kid in the middle east took a dump in a puddle of oil .. or at least thats about how all the excuses sound to me lol
