Jon, while zinc could work the light weight means velocity is shed fast and penetration is reduced.

Brad,
Yeah, that is surely true. I'd never step into that realm, unless the State of Minnesota made me do it. I'd think a ZAMAK III 50 cal RB (about 120gr???) would still take a Deer in the typically thick MN woods...typical shooting distance would be 50 yds or less...and more likely less.
