Just another example in my opinion of taking away efficient tools for stupid feel good reasons/marketing etc. Killed tons of bobcats with them and some coyotes too. Still have a box or two in the cabinet from "back in the day" No lead shot, no bobcat hunting etc. etc, here anymore. Maybe hunt something else with them .... ML http://cagingbobcats.com/
