Lead Shot Barrier Curtain

PELLET-xxä

Help Keep Lead Out of Our Environment

With a Cost Effective, Easy,  Lead Shot Control Method

Studies indicate that over 60,000 Tons of lead ammunition is spent into the environment every year. 

In conjunction with the University of Massachusetts - Dartmouth and the Massachusetts Sportsmen’s Council, PELLET-xxä a Lead Shot Barrier curtain has been developed for control of lead shot in skeet and trap shooting sports clubs. 

Comply with Federal, State, Local and NSSF Guidelines

  • PELLET-xxä is an engineered fabric construction of curtain barriers designed to prevent spent lead shot pellets from falling into environmentally sensitive wetlands, and other areas, at Trap and Skeet shooting gun clubs.

No Interference with Gun Activity

  • PELLET-xxä lead shot barrier, withstands ballistic impacts of shotgun pellets from distances as close as 80 yards.  Curtains were field tested by the University of Massachusetts – Dartmouth, Textile Sciences Department, College of Engineering, as well as trial models at local gun clubs.

Low Maintenance Resolution

  • PELLET-xxä curtain fabric is polyester based giving excellent long-term outdoor weathering.  The fabric is coated for stability and color to blend in with the surroundings.

Cost Effective and Easy to Install

  • PELLET-xxä barriers are available cut/sewn, and assembled  (see drawing).  Grommets at top and bottom make installation and opening/closing easy.  The number of curtains will need to be determined by individual gun clubs for their existing space configuration.

* This white paper is a study only, and the University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth and Hope Global are not responsible for installation of curtains at individual facilities.
