Under normal conditions of handling, no exposure to any of the harmful components inside the cartridge is expected and no health effects are generally expected as supplied. When cartridges are fired, or otherwise discharged, gases, fumes and projections may be formed. These gases, fumes and projections may contain trace amounts of the components inside the cartridges. These gases, fumes and projections may be irritating to the eyes, skin and respiratory tract. Inner cartridge components include Lead and Lead compounds. Lead accummulates in body tissues and prolonged overexposure to even low levels may eventually result in lead toxicity syndrome which may result in permanent damage or death . See TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION, Section 11. Environmental precautions: Avoid release to the environment.
