halb so wild wenn man weiss was man nicht tun sollte, bzw wenn man ein wenig vorsicht walten lässt
ich habe mir aber auf alle fälle ein paar p3 filtermasken gekauft, werde sie zum schiessen indoors wenn viel los ist ( sowie beim vor gehen durch die wolke zum abkleben), und zum tumbler ausleeren anziehen.
man merkt es eh selber wenn man den süslichen pulverdampf in der nase hat(ja das ist blei), dann wirds zeit für die maske
bei einer indoorrange ist vor allem das blei in den primern das problem weil das durch den verbrennungsvorgang in allen möglichen bioverfügbaren verbindungen vorliegt (oxide usw) .
man sollte hülsen aufheben und nicht zusammenkehren(staub aufwirbeln)
durch den pulverdampf spazieren nur mit p3 filter
waffen reinigen hülsen tumblen und blei giessen am besten im freien, sonst flächen reinigen und mundschutz nehmen
sowie ganz wichtig hände waschen immer wenn man geschossen /geputzt /geladen hat (kalt dann warm mit seife)
nach dem standbesuch, oder wenn man glaub etwas eingeatmet zu haben, dann vitamin C nehmen, das bindet das blei im körper und entfernt es .
und kinder von 0-6 sind wirklich gefährdet, ein kind mit einer erhöhten bleibelastung ,hat ernstahfte entwicklungsdefizite 25mcg/dl führt zu einem defizit von 5-10 IQ punkten!

auszüge:
der erste kommt mir selber übertrieben vor.
here is what I do to reduce the chance of contamination:
1. tumble outdoors. my machine stays outdoors, right outside my side door. if it gets stolen or destroyed by the elements, oh well. i turn it on from inside the house (the cable runs under the door to the outside), and turn it off from the inside. i wait about 10 minutes for the dust to settle before going out there. when i have to pour out the media, I wear an OSHA respirator (they are about $2-3 each). You can reuse this respirator many times becuase I only use it when I pull out cases. It is enough to keep the dust out. I put a spent dryer sheet in there each time I get one from the laundry, and I change the media out after 350 cases have been tumbled. Treat the media as toxic contaminant and bag it up properly.
2. I deprime with a dedicated lee handpress. the spent primers are dropped direction from the press into a low walled tub with about an inch of water inside. this reduced the chance of inhaling primer powders (yuck). the primer pocket holes are also cleaned out over this tub. I wear a separate OHSA respirator mask for this step as well. by the way, respirators are basically heavily upgraded dust masks, but make sure they are OHSA approved.
3. I dont use cast bullets. i'm too careless, i might forget and poke my eyes or lick a finger. if you're careful, this probably doesn't apply to you. I use FMJ or perhaps SP, and I make sure to wash my hands after handling.
4. when i shoot, i shoot exclusively outdoors without cover or with top cover only (like a canopy). i shot a couple of times in an indoor range. i woudl leave each time with a creepy sweet taste in my mouth - that's lead. i tried to ask about lead danger at that range, but the guys just laughed it off. oh, by the way.. don't EVER sweep up brass either to gather brass or "clean up" at indoor ranges. there is a TON of lead dust on the floor of most indoor ranges and you along with everyone else will inhale it. my buddy kept trying to sweep up because he felt like he owned the establishment a tidy range. it was a poorly thought out idea. it is a different story at the outdoor ranges.
5. don't shoot prone at public range lines. at private ranges, put down some ground cover so you aren't snorting up dust off the concrete.
6. when cleaning guns, i flush them out with windex outdoors. (corrosive primers). i wear latex gloves. if nothing else, solvents and clp are carcinogenic I am sure. I make sure there is adequate ventilation. and lastly, i use a Ransom Mat so that all the mess, oil, etc is on that mat which is then wiped off at the end.
IMHO, two of the biggest risky behaviors are: 1. tumbling your brass on your bench, a foot or two away from your head, indoors; 2. cleaning guns and not cleaning the work surface afterwards - or not wearing gloves while handling contaminated chemicals.
finally, if indoor shooting or heavily covered outdoor shooting are your only options, WEAR A RESPIRATOR WHILE SHOOTING. sure you will look funny as hell and people might make comments, but the reason why they are not worried about inhaling lead fumes may be because they are already brain damaged.
I'm a medical researcher from Australia and did a lot of work on lead poisonning especially in children. Published a number of peer reviewed articles in Australia's national medical jpurnal ( and, no, Australia is not a third world country and our medical research output, on a per capita basis exceeds the US and UK).
The important point is that children:
- absorb more of the lead that they are exposed to compared to adults;
- are much, much more sensitive to the effects of lead because it affects the developing brain - risk greatest from 9 months to 4-5 years.
Children can with lower levels of exposure have reduced IQ, hearing problems etc as listed earlier in this post and with very high levels of exposure can start having convulsions, go into a coma and die. One or two children die each year from lead poisonning in Oz.
If you have a high lead level, or if your children may be exposed because of where you tumble, cast, reload, dispose of dross from casting etc get their blood lead levels checked.
A child with a blood lead level of 25mcg/dl will, on average, lose 5-10 IQ points (much more if they are also iron deficient) but WILL NOT SHOW ANY SYMPTOMS.
Dogs and cats may also be effected.
