The Cascade Tower™ is a patent-pending reactive steel target system engineered to deliver progressive movement, extended shooting cycles, and reduced reset frequency in a compact vertical design.
Standing approximately 6 feet tall, the system features a rugged steel base with stabilizing feet and a 15-degree angled upright tube designed to help direct bullet splash safely downward. Positioned in front of the upright is a protective SR500 steel wear bar that shields the main structure from repeated impacts and prolongs overall system durability.
Mounted at the top of the tower is the spring-loaded reactive target mechanism. When the SR500 target plate is struck, the force of the bullet drives the mechanism rearward against spring tension, causing it to release and drop downward approximately 3 inches before locking into the next indexed position.
Each additional hit repeats the sequence — impact, compression, release, and controlled drop — creating a highly engaging reactive shooting experience with visible movement and immediate audible feedback.
The Cascade Tower™ features 22 individual drop positions, allowing shooters to make significantly more impacts before needing to reset the system compared to traditional reactive steel targets.
Reset Procedure
Once the target mechanism reaches the bottom position, resetting the system is fast and straightforward:
Push the target plate inward to release the locking pin mechanism
Slide the target assembly upward along the rear indexing channel
Lock the mechanism back into the top starting position
Resume shooting
The result is a smooth, repeatable reset process with minimal downtime between shooting cycles.
