The Challenge
It has come to light through extensive study that lead ammunition unintentionally left in gut piles by hunters is a source of lead poisoning for scavengers and other wildlife, especially eagles.
The Opportunity
Hunters can reduce the occurrence of lead poisoning of wildlife by using lead-free ammunition. For this effort, we are offering Alaskan hunters a rebate of up to $80 off two boxes of copper rifle ammunition or up to $50 off two boxes of bullets for reloading.
Rebates are limited so act fast to get yours!
Who is Eligible?
Licensed hunters with a mailing address in Alaska are eligible.
