Guns in national parks and the phony lead bullet issue

In relation to the new rules on carry in national parks, Donald Sensing writes:

That’s the tack that the Obama administration will take: it’s the lead that’s the problem, so guns must be banned from federal lands. This is not a new tactic, of course, since opponents of Second Amendment rights have long tried to shut down firearms use by trying to cripple ammunition makers and users with absolute liability for ammunition use. It won’t matter, either, that ammunition without any lead at all is available on the civilian market. A way will be found, a reason will be given. The present “defense” of the Bush rule is just theater.

I have a question. Park rangers carry guns, so what kind of bullets do they use and do they contain lead? I think I know the answer and I think you, do, too.
