Abstract

A method is described for the estimation of the distance of shot of rifled weapons by chemical development of the pattern of lead compounds in the discharge residues, the lead compounds having originated from the primers of the cartridges.

Abstract

Most commercial sources of zinc contain varying amounts of lead, and the manufacturers of trace mineral mixes have been concerned about keeping the lead levels as low as possible in their finished product. Lead poisoning of waterfowl and migratory birds appears to result from the ingestion of spent lead shot, and studies have been conducted to determine the severity and elucidate the symptoms of this malady (Lewis and Legler, 1968; Bagley et al., 1967). Grandy et al. (1968) investigated the relative toxicity of lead and several other proposed substitute shot types to 18-month-old Mallard drakes. All of the birds dosed with commercial lead (eight number 6 shot) died within 15 days. Two other shot types, a tin-lead alloy and zinc, resulted in mortality rates of 27 and 20%, respectively. There were no deaths among ducks dosed with nickel, teflon-coated steel, or tin. A report by Cook and Trainer (1966) indicated…

Abstract

A technique for accurate measurement of lead shot within the human body is presented. The step-wedge overlay method permits measurement of lead shot in a variety of different diameters embedded up to 15 cm from the surface of the skin.

Abstract

Mixing several sizes of lead shot increases the shot density. This increased density should be useful for shielding problems in mantle and irregular-field therapy.
