Description
The Tipton 280986 Snap Caps are a matched 2-pack of reusable 12 Gauge dummy rounds built around a brass base and a plastic hull, each fitted with a false primer that absorbs firing-pin strikes during practice. Designed for safe trigger-pull exercises and dry-fire training, they let shotgun owners run function checks, fundamentals drills, and confidence-building sessions without live ammunition in the chamber.
Beyond trigger time, Tipton engineered these snap caps for long dry-firing sessions and the everyday job of storing a break-action shotgun with the firing-pin spring unloaded. Leaving a snap cap seated when the gun is put away holds the action open and releases tension on the firing-pin spring, extending the life of the action’s components.
These 12 Gauge snap caps are intended for break-action shotguns only. They are not designed to be cycled through the action of a pump or semi-auto shotgun, so be sure to choose the right model for your platform. The pack includes 2 snap caps, ready to slot into your range bag as a dependable training tool.
