According to the article OSHA: Gun Range Exposed Workers to Lead was cited and fined by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) for 28 alleged health violations pertaining to excessive exposure to lead and lead dust including failure to implement engineering and work practice controls to reduce exposure to lead and lead dust.
In another recent case, a firing range hired a contractor to conduct lead management. The contractor was subsequently fined $460,000 by OSHA for 38 violations pertaining to excessive exposure to lead and lead dust and many other respiratory protection hazards.
