Wet Trap Detail

The heart of the Savage Range System bullet containment system is the patented deceleration chamber. The bullet is deflected off of the 12° entrance ramp and revolves around the deceleration chamber, forfeiting its kinetic energy in a circular motion. The biodegradable fluid on the low angle ramp reduces friction and captures any lead dust to keep it from becoming airborne. The bottom of the deceleration chamber has a small opening extending the width of the chamber. This allows the spent bullets to drop out of the bottom of the chamber and into the Collection System. The deceleration chamber of the Model 800/W is fabricated from 3/8" AR500 steel plate.
