Description

 A-Zoom Dummy Rounds 17HMR 6 Pack #12202

Action Proving A-Zoom 17 HMR (Hornady Mag Rimfire) Dummy rounds are used to teach people how to use weapons safely. They aren't snap caps at all. For function testing, they can be worked through the actions of any 17 HMR pistol. Dry shooting will distort the head, limiting the number of strikes to four or five.
 

Best Suited For

  • Firearm function testing – safely check feeding, extraction, and ejection
  • Training & safety instruction – widely used in hunter education and handling drills
  • Gunsmith work – ideal for diagnosing cycling or action timing issues
  • Safe loading/unloading practice – realistic handling without live ammunition
  • Demonstrations – showing firearm operation safely in classes or shops

👉 Unlike traditional snap caps, these are action-proving dummy rounds, optimized more for cycling and testing rather than repeated dry firing.

When To Use It

  • When checking magazine feeding and bolt cycling
  • During firearm maintenance or troubleshooting
  • While teaching safe firearm handling procedures
  • Before live-fire testing to ensure proper operation
  • For dry manipulation drills (loading, unloading, cycling)

⚠️ Note: They can be dry-fired occasionally, but are not designed for repeated dry firing.

FAQs

No. They are dummy rounds, designed for cycling and testing—not prolonged dry fire use.

Limited use only. Repeated dry firing will deform the rim/head after a few strikes.

Q: Will they function like real ammo?
Yes, they are dimensionally accurate and simulate real feeding and extraction.

Q: Are they safe?
Yes—completely inert with no primer or powder, eliminating risk of discharge.

Q: Can they be used in all .17 HMR rifles?
Generally yes, but not recommended for tubular magazines.
