• Non-toxic projectile
• Reduced safety/danger zone
• Ballistic match with conventional ammunition up to 100 m
• Similar recoil and function of conventional ammunition
• Less barrel wear
• Perfectly visible trace, day and night, up to 100 m
• Significant range construction and maintenance savings

Applications

• Training in or close to urban areas where safety templates need to be greatly reduced

These lethal cartridges are not to be fired at personnel.

Short Stop® are used in the trainees’ own service weapons, without conversion, these lethal non-toxic 7.62 mm cartridges feature a destabilized projectile providing the accuracy of conventional ammunition up to 100 meters (330 feet), yet maximum range is reduced to less than 600 meters with similar recoil and function.

Short Stop® projectiles are made with a non-toxic and frangible bronze/copper polymer-filled which reduces the danger of ricochet and splash back associated with conventional ammunition, while reducing environmental contamination.

The unique Short Stop® tracer represents a quantum leap in technology by incorporating tracer technology with a short-range frangible projectile. This projectile has day and night tracing capabilities. It is safe to use and meets environmental regulations. It has the same interior and exterior ballistics as an SRTA ball round.
