Total BS! I have a lead bullet inside my pelvis, from being shot in a robbery, 38 years ago, and I’m just fine.
Precisely correct. Any lead shot in the lakes would have to be leftover from the pre-steel days.
Yeah, here’s another, less technical article from a hunting perspective:

I knew that hunters were sometimes required to use steel shot, but didn’t know the particulars.
I know that a lot of mountain streams pass through galena (lead sulfide) outcrops without apparent ill effect, but lead sulfide is apparently not as water soluble as elemental lead.
That's surprising. At any rate the FedMob needs to get out of our lives and the EPA should be scrapped! Enough of their do-gooder meddling.
Agreed. I should have used the /sarc tag. I fluked up.
