In 2019, California banned the use of lead bullets for hunting. Since then, I’ve been trying to find a good non-lead factory load in 6.5 Creedmoor. My early rudimentary testing unfortunately did not inspire confidence. That was a handful of years ago and the market has seen a lot of new offerings since. So the time seemed ripe for another test. This time I wanted to be confident in my results so I did an in-depth test with every non-lead factory ammo I could easily get my hands on.
