The Traditions ASC223 Snap Caps provide essential dry fire training capability for .223 Remington rifles without risking firing pin damage. These precision-molded snap caps feature durable plastic construction with brass bases that withstand repeated striker impacts during practice sessions.
What Makes This Different
Unlike solid metal snap caps that can cause excessive wear, these plastic-bodied snap caps absorb firing pin energy while the brass base provides authentic chambering feel. The two-tone construction combines impact resistance with proper weight distribution. Each snap cap handles hundreds of dry fire cycles while maintaining dimensional accuracy for reliable feeding and extraction.

These snap caps excel in competitive shooting preparation, allowing shooters to practice trigger control and bolt manipulation without live ammunition.
