<<Didn't realize that lead BBs were still legal.>> They were back in 1985. No steel shot back then. A friend of mine passed on in Havana, Illinois last year, Dr. Frank Bellrose. He was the guy who invented the wood duck house that brought the specie back from endangered to abundant. He also hiked the back waters of the Illinois River and picked up dead ducks. Set up an x-ray machine in his basement and found when ducks ate lead shot as grit, the gizzards ground it up and poisoned the ducks. He's the reason lead shot is a no no around water. That research almost killed him. Had a lead shield but didn't know the x-rays would bounce off the concrete walls and nail him from behind. Cost him 3 months in the hospital.
