ABSTRACT:
A feeder transfer chute lying in a vertical plane is adapted to convey elongated ammunition cartridges by gravity, each cartridge having a projectile at a first end and an extractor groove at a second end. The chute includes parallel spaced apart ribs which cooperate with the extractor groove to confine the second end of the cartridge proximate an end wall of the chute while not appreciably restricting the free fall acceleration of said second cartridge end. A descent restricter in the chute acts upon the first end of the cartridge, continuously retarding its downward progress to hold the acceleration of the second cartridge end to less than free fall acceleration.
