Excessive lead exposure in shooting instructors at indoor firing ranges and covered outdoor firing ranges has been documented. The City of Los Angeles assessed exposure of its full-time shooting instructors at uncovered outdoor ranges via air monitoring and blood lead-level measurements. Results of these tests revealed that significant lead exposure and absorption can occur at outdoor firing ranges. The use of copper-jacketed ammunition may decrease air lead levels and decrease lead absorption by range instructors.
室内射击场和有遮盖的室外射击场的射击教官铅暴露过量的情况已有记录。洛杉矶市通过空气监测和血铅水平测量评估了其在露天室外靶场的全职射击教官的铅暴露情况。这些测试结果显示，露天室外靶场可能会发生显著的铅暴露和吸收。使用铜壳弹药可能会降低空气中的铅含量，并减少靶场教官的铅吸收。
