Description

A-Zoom Snap Caps 28g

These precision shotgun snap caps have a weight comparable to regular ammo, making them perfect for realistic function testing. They are carefully CNC machined from solid aluminum to exact cartridge dimensions before being hard anodized for exceptionally smooth operation and extended life.

These are very important for reducing the tension on the mainspring of your shotgun before storing it for an extended period of time. Shotshell snap caps are also used by cowboy shooters for loading and dry fire practice.
