BWT-250

Forensic Ballistic Firing Tank

BWT-250

The BWT-250 Bullet Recovery Water Tank is a heavy-duty ballistic testing solution engineered to capture comparison bullets from a wide range of firearms—including high-caliber weapons up to 12.7mm (.50 BMG).


Building on the proven performance of the BWT-102, BWT-250 offers increased durability and pressure resistance, making it ideal for testing powerful ammunition in a safe, controlled environment. Faster and more reliable than traditional recovery methods, it provides ballistic experts with accurate results through a system that is safe, robust, and easy to operate.

9 mm – 9x19mm

7.62 mm – 7.62x 39mm

Smart Pressure Relief System

Firearms in Forensic Bullet Recovery Tank create very high pressure. This pressure must be safely relieved. Our Smart Pressure Relief System effectively directs the generated pressure, allowing operators to fire continuously.

Vacuum Rod

A vacuum rod is used to collect bullets after firing. Due to the high pressure resistance requirement, the BWT-250 has been developed with a single-body design. Fired bullets and fragments can be collected in just a few minutes by activating the vacuum rod.
