California goes completely lead-free for hunting in a couple of weeks. I was wondering if anyone has experience with any of the lead-free .22LR that is out there. Specifically, I will be hunting rabbits and squirrels.

I have heard .17HMR and .22WRM do a little better lead-free than .22lr, but I doubt I can justify a new rifle...and I like the .22s I have.

I'll lead turn your "get out of California" comments. I'm active duty and stationed here.
