lead concerns handling ammo??

[morepoop4u]

So I just got 2k of bulgy 7.62x54r from century today. I started dumping them in plastic ammo cans and got to wondering how bad is the lead exposure doing this? Should I wear gloves and a respirator???

and a hazmat suit as well and make sure you have a decontamination unit standing by as well... oh.. and don;t plan on having kids either after handling this ammo......

don;t worry about it..... if you are.. wear latex gloves......

Lead

Look it up (not here...) lead is a problem when it's inhaled or consumed. in large quantities (compared to body mass). washing hands is a good idea. Shoot outside and don't eat lead...

"In adults, lead can increase blood pressure and cause fertility problems, nerve disorders, muscle and joint pain, irritability, and memory or concentration problems. "

Awe man, my fingers and joints hurt... Crap, what was I saying. dang it, now i'm pissed
