The Range Systems shoothouse wall structure typically consists of either 3/8" or ½” thick, AR 500 Brinell hardened steel plate clad with anti-ricochet Ballistic Rubber Dura Panels and/or encapsulating Ballistic Rubber Dura Blocs. Dura Panels are 24" x 24" x 2" thickness. Ballistic Rubber Dura Blocs are 24” long x 12” wide x 9” high. Wall heights can range from 8’ high to 14’ high.
Many people claim to make ballistic rubber, it may all look alike, but it DOES NOT SHOOT ALIKE.
Here are some things to take into consideration when considering ballistic rubber:
-
Shredded rubber, cold pressed under high pressure with adhesive vs. melted, hot poured rubber
-
Shoot House Experience
-
On Site Manufacturing
-
Cost
-
Using rubber products developed for non-ballistic applications, such as: sidewalks, playground, gym floors, etc.
The Encapsulator Shoothouse Law Enforcement grade
a. 2” X 24” X 24” Dura-Panel
b. 3/8 AR500 Steel
This system is ballistically capable to .300 Win Mag. As with the Enhanced Law Enforcement Grade described above, all current military small arms rounds fall within the ballistic capabilities of this product. However, relative thinnest of the AR 500 steel suggests the use of Hollow Point ammunition could result in faster wear of the steel if supplemental bullet traps are not installed. The absorption capacity of the Dura-Panel is considerably less that the Dura-Bloc, resulting in a shorter maintenance cycle for Dura-Panel replacement.
