KEEPING YOU SAFELY ON TARGET

THE FACTS

Every shooting range consists of three components: a firing line, a target system and a bullet trap. This applies to both indoor and outdoor ranges. All three components are designed to provide a safe and functional ballistic environment. From a safety perspective the bullet trap is the most important component due its necessity to stop live fire ammunition, often at close range.

Indoor and outdoor bullet traps and berms use a variety of approaches to achieve this objective including:

• Earthen berms

• Snail traps

• Angled plates with retention pits

• Gran traps

• Rubber blocks

• Fire resistant belted rubber curtains – inefficient with high cost.

All of these approaches have several common challenges:

• High cost of service and maintenance in recovering lead

• High cost of installation

• Require substantial real estate

• Highly flammable

• Environmentally detrimental

• Fail in providing a safe shooting environment.
