Fiocchi Action Proving Dummy 12 Gauge 2-3/4" Box of 10

Fiocchi Action Proving Dummy 12 Gauge 2-3/4" rounds are inert training shells designed for function testing, dry fire practice, and action cycling without firing a live round. Whether you're checking mechanical reliability on a new shotgun, working through malfunction drills, or simply cycling your gun to stay familiar with its operation, these clearly marked dummy rounds let you work safely at home or on the range. A box of 10 gives you plenty of rounds for a solid practice session or for keeping a few on hand in your reloading bench or gun bag.

Dummy rounds are an essential tool for any serious shotgunner. They let you verify that your shotgun feeds, chambers, and cycles properly—critical before trusting it in the field or on the line. Unlike snap caps or wooden practice rounds, Fiocchi's dummies are built to the same dimensions and weight as live ammunition, so they function identically in your gun's action. That means you'll catch feeding issues, tube bind, or other problems before they matter.

The shells are clearly labeled as dummy ammunition so there's no confusion in a gear bag or on the bench. Keep a box in your range bag for testing guns you're troubleshooting, or use them at home for dry fire drills when live rounds aren't appropriate. They're an economical, repeatable way to stay sharp and keep your shotgun running right.
