if you shoot a rabbit with lead, can you get lead poisoning from eating the rabbit?

No

You probably get more risk from handling the ammo and smoking/eating without washing your hands.

You can shoot steel balls too...of course that is not as good as lead but he do the job very well.

Depending on the strength of your catty you can use .45 or .50 steels balls...For exemple, on Fish´s catty you can easily use .50 steel balls...
