Ryan Rothstein: Why I switched to copper (and steel) ammunition

I remember the first time I saw the imaging from a study investigating lead fragmentation on shot game.
The area of impact was obvious on the gray and blue slide, a neat bullet hole where the round had landed. There were clearly small lead fragments around this wound channel, but what really caught my eye were the glowing white dots scattered throughout the carcass. Each of those neon specks were fragments of lead that the bullet had shed upon impact with the carcass.
