Birchwood Casey Dura-Cap Dummy Rounds for .223/5.56 (brand part no. DCTR-223) are CNC machined from solid aluminum and hard anodized for smooth, repeated cycling through a rifle’s action. A durable rubber firing pin impact buffer absorbs the strike on each dry-fire, preventing the wear that repeated dry-firing without a snap cap can cause to the firing pin. This 6-count pack works out to about $2.70 per dummy round, giving handloaders and new rifle owners alike an affordable way to run function checks or trigger work on a .223/5.56 platform.
