I try to take a hopeful view. CA did ban lead on public ground for hunting. Not private - i confirmed this with a large skeet/trap club today. No change on private land. UK did ban lead but lets not forget this phrase 'Exemptions: ... outdoor target shooting ranges with appropriate risk management, ' I tend to think outdoor shooting ranges will come up with long term risk management plans. Maybe we should all ask our clubs about future plans now. I am sorry about the impact to an old club shooting over a pond or on public land. I'm sure its frustrating to be forced to change. Every industry has to adapt over time. A race track i ran at for a long time got run out of business over noise and zoning. Didnt adapt fast enough. A golf course i used to frequent got zoned out and turned into commercial property. funny that now the hottest ticket in town is TopGolf -seems to always be crowded . I am hopeful for hunting and shooting to survive well into the future.

I've belonged to a public club for about 50 years and it is located on the shores of the water resevoir for the Baltimore City and County drinking water. You can see the water as you shoot. We have the lead mined every 5-6 years or so, just had it done a month or so ago, and the soil and water tested. Zero lead contamination and this club has been in existence almost 75 years. This banning lead shot for whatever purpose is just another back door way to ban hunting, shooting and eventually guns.

Massachusetts covered this with a ‘caveat emptor’ clause that says if the shooting range was there before you were you have NO CASE.
