Lead contamination is inevitable. but what choice do we have? How much does the effect of lead contamination in Potassium nitrate or Black Powder?
We could used Antimony to harden. However, casting lead will cause additional hazards:

1. Melted lead can cause very painful burns if spilled or splashed around.
2. The danger of breathing in the fumes from the molten lead.

Lead can accumulate in one's system over a period of time and cause lead poisoning.
