[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 447965, member: 21536"] Yes, the lead ammunition ban is being phased in. Lead shot is pretty much a goner now. Non-lead ammo will be required for all hunting in California by July 1, 2019. The ban even applies to nuisance non-game animals, like squirrels or rodents. As far as I can see, target shooting with lead ammunition is still going to be OK. But I've been around long enough to not be surprised if that is eventually banned too. I will be surprised if copper is used in fishing weights because of cost. I've seen non-lead sinkers at the stores but don't know what metals are used. [/QUOTE]
