Episode 571 - Leland Brown || To Lead Or Not To Lead - What Bullet Is Best?

Leland Brown is a PhD student who has worked for some time on the idea of lead-free ammunition. Leland and Robbie cover the start of the lead-free controversy, addressing myths about lead-free ammunition (from efficacy, ballistics, terminal efficient, etc) and sets the tone for Leland’s PhD research. There is always significant controversy when one starts talking about lead free ammunition - specifically as it pertains to reducing hunting opportunities and it always comes down to availability and efficacy. Robbie and Leland talk about it all. Get to know the guest: https://www.trcp.org/2025/03/27/in-the-arena-leland-brown/ Do you have questions we can answer?
