How many reloaders have had lead poisoning? Do you worry about it? What steps do you take to minimize exposure?
I've never had my blood lead levels checked, but I'm thinking about it. In addition to washing hands/face after reloading, I change clothes after reloading and never re-wear until I've washed them. I've also invested in a few boxes of latex gloves that I wear when reloading. I wipe down everything with wet paper towels and vacuum/sweep the area whenever I get a chance. I suppose I should switch over to jacketed bullets entirely, but haven't done that yet. Am I worrying too much?
