This is the story... I started sorting and selling brass (for reloading) a little over a year ago. This year things really went well, maybe due to Obama. This year alone I have sorted roughly 500lbs of brass. This got me to thinking, how good it this for my health. Not good at all.... I was tested this week and it turns out I have lead poisoning but not really bad bad just 12mcg/dl (10 is considered max). My suspicion – the brass. It is typically pretty dusty and dirty. Some of the dust may go airborne but most just ends up on my hands. Kind of a bad deal so after this last 380lbs I'm quitting.
I's still undecided on bullet casting, we'll wait till spring and see how things look.
