The A-Zoom Metal Snap Cap in 20 Gauge (brand part no. 12213) is a machined-aluminum dummy shotshell built to let you release the mainspring for safe storage instead of leaving your shotgun cocked between hunts. Because it’s similar in weight to a standard shotshell, it also works for realistic function testing, cycling through the action just like live ammunition would. Cowboy action shooters use shotshell snap caps like this one for loading drills and dry-fire practice where live ammunition isn’t appropriate. Two snap caps ship per pack, enough to load through a double-barrel or keep a spare on the bench.
