Lightfield has developed a full line of less lethal ammunition for Wildlife Control Professionals. The aversive conditioning of large, heavy muscled animals is a growing trend with specific range demands. The new Lightfield line includes patent pending designs with velocity and kinetic energies calibrated for range specific applications. The new line is intended exclusively for wildlife control and provides effective and affordable solutions for close, mid-range and extended range targets.
Lightfield believes ammunition that is safe and effective at close range on humans may be underpowered for large animals at greater ranges. Likewise, loads that are effective at extended ranges may be too powerful for humans at close range. In response to that situation, Lightfield has calibrated its wildlife control line into the following basic classes: Close range 8-25 yards, Mid-range 15-40 yards and Extended range 30+ yard.

Rubber Buckshot
This is the ‘traditional’ aversive conditioning round, improved to carry a larger payload. There are 21 .32 caliber PVC balls moving at 700 fps. This load is designed for close to intermediate encounters with large game such as Bear, Moose, Elk or Deer. The 21 pellets spread into a large pattern to impart a painful stimuli over a large area with little risk of injury.
Rubber Ball
This load is an improvement on traditional rubber buckshot. This load has two .73 cal. projectiles rather than many smaller ones. At the same 700 fps, two larger balls carry kinetic energy farther than small ones and are more effective at greater distances. The bore sized projectiles also enhance accuracy at greater distance. The 2 balls divide the total K.E. across two impact points, creating a strong pain stimulus without penetration.
Midrange Rubber Slug
A patented design available only through Lightfield. The black 130 gr. slug @ 550 fps will accurately target problem wildlife for safe and effective aversive conditioning. This load has been used thou-sands of times against bears and other large animals across the US and Canada. This load is accurate and effective out to 40 yards.
Note: The Extended Range Rubber Slug should only be used in Cylinder or Improved Cylinder-choked rifle barrels only.
Extended Range Rubber Slug
The same patented design as our mid-range slug, colored Blue for user identification and at 650 fps. This load is intended to deposit higher levels of kinetic energy at longer distance than any other load available. This load permits aversive conditioning at distances well beyond the norm, and provides enough K.E. to move large animals at greater distance.
Note: The Extended Range Rubber Slug should only be used in Cylinder or Improved Cylinder-choked rifle barrels only.
