I got to thinking (something that doesn't happen too often at my age) about air filters.
My son and I share a reloading room at his house (lives a bloack away). He just had a child (my 3rd grandchild) and I started to rethink the whole lead issue. We load a lot of shotgun shells for trap shooting and that means handling a lot of lead shot. Add a large supply of lead bullets for .38/.357, 9mm and .45 acp and I am beginning to think that we should do something to reduce the lead floating around in the air.
I am considering adding a small room sized HEPA filter. We have gotten serious about handwashing after loading and I feel that the air filter is a no-brainer (no inconvenience for a potential increase in safety).
Anybody else utilize a HEPA filter in their loading room?
