This review is from: A-Zoom 223 Rem Precision Snap Caps (2 Pack) (Sports)
These snap caps are very durable and non-corrosive. I’ve had no jams, double-feeds or otherwise, using these snap rounds.
For all those who are unfamiliar with these, they are basically fake rounds that have no firing capabilities whatsoever. They do not cycle your weapons’ semi-auto action because their is no primer, gunpowder, or gaseous device involved.
Their main purpose are for use as a training aid (to see if proper trigger pull is excercised) and to safely demonstrate the weapons’ actions without the risk of a negligent discharge.
Relatively expensive for only 2 rounds, but very worthwhile in the longrun.

Not much to say here: they’re aluminum snap caps, they feed and cycle like live ammo, they’re nearly indestructible. I like these over plastic snap caps very much. I couldn’t tell you how many thousands of dry fires my snap caps have seen but they still work flawlessly.
The only negative comments I have are:
A) The red finish wears over time. Not a big deal, really. Just something to note.
2) Your weapon’s steel extractor will (naturally) wear the aluminum case rim over time. Again, not a big deal, just dress the burrs with some 600 wet/dry sandpaper and carry on.
Buy lots to keep up your trigger press and weapon manipulation skills. They also work very well for mixing randomly in a magazine of live ammo to simulate a dead primer for tap/rack/bang drills. Highly useful!

Although the snap caps are metal, the bottom lips of the snap caps are being mangled by the rifle’s extractor. I can see the snap caps eventually failing, once enough metal is removed from the bottom lips. A-Zoom needs to somehow address this design weakness.
