I’ve been toying with the idea of “ratting” to eliminate some field mice I’ve been seeing in the hay barn. Considering that livestock eat this hay, I am not inclined to use lead pellets in the event of pass throughs and missed shots because I don’t want them ingesting any lead when they will later be slaughtered for food and sold. I’m sure their are varying opinions here, but I’m pretty set on not shooting lead into the hay. So my first thought was to use lead free pellets which are expensive to shoot mice with. I don’t suspect that I’ll do much to their numbers. It would be more of a recreational activity that may slow their reproduction rate. My question is what are your thoughts on this idea? Are any members casting tin or lead-free projectiles? If so, what have you found success with?
