Don't Stop the Bullet, Deflect It
Snail™ Systems Deflection Ramps Make the Difference

The patented Wet Snail™ System, with low angle ramps and round deceleration chamber, results in virtually no airborne lead at the trap.

Unlike other steel traps on the market, Snail Traps have patented low angle ramps (12° for rifle and 15° for pistol) that guide the bullet over the entrance ramp into the round deceleration chamber, where the bullet loses energy and safely drops into a collection area, ready for recycling. A .30-06 bullet will make approximately 130 revolutions in 2-3 seconds.

In the Wet Snail Trap, a mixture of biodegradable oil and water encapsulates any lead particles that may be generated before they become airborne and inhaled by the range users. This results in a safer and cleaner environment for the shooter.
