If you shoot a 20 gauge, these Carlson's snap caps pull double duty in a way most dummy rounds don't. The aluminum body houses a spring-loaded primer plunger that gives the firing pin something soft to land on, so you can dry-fire for practice or ease spring tension before the gun goes in the safe. On the other end sits a wool chamber mop, which is the feature that really earns these a spot in your range bag.
Here's the trick most folks miss: soak that wool tip in a few drops of your favorite gun oil before you chamber the cap. The wool coats the inside of the chamber with a protective film that keeps moisture and rust at bay, which matters a lot for barrels that aren't chrome-lined. Fired plastic shells leave behind a little condensation, and that's what starts corrosion, so an oiled mop sitting in the chamber during storage buys you real peace of mind.
Owners of break-action guns tend to love these over heavier metal caps or featherweight plastic ones. The wool grabs lightly on the ejectors when you open the action, so the caps don't launch across the yard when you crack the gun open, but they still lift out easily with your fingers. That short overall length also means they tuck neatly into the choke tube slots in most hard shotgun cases. They're well built, the spring load on the primer is firm, and Carlson's stands behind them.
Whether you're working on trigger control, running function checks, or just protecting a nice over/under between seasons, this pair covers the bases. Keep the wool freshly oiled, wipe down the aluminum if it gets grimy, and they'll last you a long time.
Put a few drops of gun oil on the wool tip before you chamber the cap. The wool spreads a light protective film through the chamber that helps keep moisture and rust away during storage. Re-oil the wool as needed, and it works especially well for barrels that aren't chrome-lined.
Yes. Each cap has a spring-loaded primer plunger that cushions the firing pin when it drops, which is what protects it during dry-firing and function checks. That's also handy for relieving spring tension before the gun goes into storage instead of leaving it cocked.
The wool tip lightly grabs the ejectors when you open the action, so the caps don't go flying like lightweight plastic ones tend to. They still lift out easily with your fingers when you're ready to load live shells.
This is a two-pack, which pairs up nicely for over/unders and side-by-sides so you can cover both barrels at once. A single pack also covers pumps and semi-autos for training and storage.
