@zupyo22 When a shooting range wants to clean up the lead you just dig up the top couple feet or so of soil and take it out.  Shotshells don't dig into the soil unless fired directly into the soil, and that's not what you do shooting clays. So when the shot is fired the lead simply travels until it loses speed and falls to earth like gentle lead rain. Unless you have severe erosion problems it doesn't go anywhere else.

@zupyo22 Sorry, but I think you will not ge a real answer to that stupid question.

@Nwest82 I take a 5 gallon bucket to the range with me everytime I go. I usually come home with it around half full of hulls I can use. Saves me money, enough to pay for the gas to go there, and I clean up the range.

[Nwest82]

give the shells to me, I'll take a good chunk off your hands perferably in 12, 16, and 20 gauges.

@mdr8088 agreed that's why I reload, well one of the reasons. I even pick hulls up in the woods that look half decent and use them for reloading.
