Recently a CBA member sent me the question below. I thought the forum was the best place to get a good answer.
Please help.

==================
"Out of concern for the well being of our cast bullet people this issue and
the last one have people using bird shot as bullet metal and I've seen
written that shot contains small percentages of arsenic with warning not
to melt it and use it for casting. Journal 249 page 11 at the top: 'cast
from JR brand reclaimed shot'. The last issue reference is in the match
results, someone using magnum birdshot in bullet metal. We sure don't
want to see our membership diminished prematurely. Does this deserve
further research?"
