New NSSF Infographic: Ammunition Under Attack Anti-hunting groups are working to ban the use of traditional ammunition with lead components. The California Fish and Game Commission on April 9 adopted regulations to implement the law that will ban the use of traditional ammunition for all hunting in the state by July 1, 2019. The implementation will involve multiple phases, beginning with the 2015 hunting season. What has started in California could become reality elsewhere as anti-hunting groups use the supposed harm caused by traditional ammunition as a wedge issue to further their ultimate political agenda of banning hunting across the country. View the NSSF YouTube video or Infographic to get the facts.
