    if you are concerned about lead contamination then just use lead free bullets, but yeah you do run the risk of ingesting lead dust when you shoot with regular bullets.
    I am not personally too concerned about it as long as you don't eat the damaged meat.

    Here are some lead free options,
    if you reload you can buy Barnes TSX,TTSX, LRX, Nosler E Tip, Hornady GMX etc projectiles as they are lead free.

    Factory Ammo, Winchester Razor, Hornady Superformance GMX are both lead free.

    Im sure there are others too

    If you can't kill it with bullets, dont f*ck with it.
