In shooting, lead primarily comes from the bullets and the primers. Led dust is released on a round is fired. Increased lead levels in your blood can occur by putting your hands in your eyes, nose, mouth, on food, or on water bottles. Use D lead wipes to clean your hands, steering wheel, gun, range bag, etc. On the range, do not eat exposed food with your hands. Keep your water bottles sealed. Early symptoms of lead poisoning are achy joints, and brain fog. Get your blood tested regularly. Lead levels above 10 units are unhealthy. Above 20 units are toxic and must be immediately addressed.
