It's only a matter of time in CA before all drugs are legal, but possession of lead will carry the penalties possession of hard drugs used to carry.
Truly the land of fruits and nuts.

I'm pretty sure lead has been banned there already. Maybe some backwoods foundries will start casting solid copper projectiles.
Niemöller is perhaps best remembered for the quotation1:
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
I think this fits what is going on.
When I had a kitchen table FFL back in the old days, I had to log EVERY round of ammo I sold, including .22LR

Only handgun ammo.
In reference to dealers having to log ammo sales:
Define "handgun ammo". Ah there's the rub. California AB962 (2009) was supposed to apply to handgun ammo, but coming up with a legal definition proved impossible. SO the good people of CA [/tongue in cheek] passed Prop 63 which basically changed "handgun ammo" to "all ammo". All ammo must be recorded and a background check run. Exemptions for sharing ammo with family, and with friends at a range, and on buying ammo to consume at ranges.
Not the best place to reference but it was the first one I found:

No. Reloading components are unregulated.
I will be shocked as well. What makes you think this is even remotely possible?Won’t they be shocked if/ when CCW becomes reciprocal. I can see there heads exploding.

This is one more example of "The Big Sort," in which Americans are clustering with like-minded neighbors.Got out in 2013, moved to Idaho. It was a good decision.

Some folks are just plain stupid. some are ignorant. Some are easily led by others. A larger and larger segment is only interested in what they can get without working for it.
They walk among us. And they vote!
There are probably enough old car/truck batteries out there that are NOT being "recycled" to make a fair number of moldable bullets.
Car batteries are a very poor choice when it comes to finding lead. With new batteries you're more likely to harm yourself than anything else.

Nor are wheel weights a viable option in California since lead wheel weights have been banned for over a decade.
Don't mistake a lack of concern for a lack of ability.To me, the most truly pathetic thing is that Californians readily voted in the super-majority that renders their state the king of the nanny states, but must live with a government that cannot keep them safe from their state's rampant crime, fix the most egregious traffic problems in the country, lower the nation's highest home-owning and rental costs nor will ever consider lowering the heinous rate of taxation upon its citizens.
