Well, there was rim fire and there was centerfire. The only reason I know that is because the rim fire rifles couldn't be dry fired. Specifically, I was shooting anschutz rifles (at a busy train station or else I'd google it :p.)
The hand contamination was definitely a thing. We weren't ever advised on washing our hands properly, so that risk is pretty high especially considering we would often eat snacks after. It was pretty irresponsible of all parties, but I have a hard time blaming my 16 year old self and my peers. The coach should've known better, though. The other concern was that here was a trap 10m down the line which flew up dust - apparently it was too expensive to clean (go figure). We'd sweep the ground, too, which kicked up a surprising amount of fine dust. Can't say for sure how much of that was lead.
I've thought about raising this as a legal issue, but if doctors can't take it seriously, I wouldn't even know where to begin on the legal front.
