Pachmayr Snap Caps .450 Bushmaster 2-Pack

Pachmayr .450 Bushmaster snap caps (brand part no. 12303) give rifle owners a safe way to dry-fire, test function, and practice malfunction drills without firing a live round. Pachmayr machines these inert dummy rounds to the same dimensions as a live .450 Bushmaster cartridge, so they feed, chamber, and eject exactly like the real thing through a bolt-action or AR-platform upper. Because they carry no powder or primer, they’re safe to cycle through the action repeatedly without any risk of discharge. This two-pack covers a bolt-gun magazine or gives a spare for storage and travel in ammunition accessories.
