- Brass/Plastic
Tipton Snap Caps .22 Rimfire training rounds let you safely practice dry fire, trigger work, and gun handling without striking a live primer or risking damage to your firing pin. Whether you're fine-tuning trigger pull, cycling your action, or simply want to release hammer tension during storage, snap caps give you a controlled, safe way to work with your rimfire without ammunition. This 10-pack ensures you always have a set on hand for cleaning days, maintenance, or dedicated dry-fire practice sessions.
Unlike dropping the hammer on an empty chamber—which can wear components and eventually cause firing pin damage—snap caps absorb the impact and protect your gun's internals. They're an essential part of any serious shooter's toolkit, especially if you own multiple .22 rimfires and want to keep them ready without the wear and tear of live firing or the risk of unintended discharge during inspection and repair work.
Keep a pack in your bench area, your range bag, or your safe. Snap caps are one of those small, inexpensive investments that pay dividends in firearm longevity and safe handling habits. Whether you're a competitive shooter, a hunter zeroing and testing loads, or simply someone who takes firearm maintenance seriously, Tipton snap caps belong in your gear rotation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use snap caps for dry fire practice?
Yes. Snap caps are designed to absorb the impact of the firing pin and hammer, making them safe for dry-fire practice, trigger work, and handling exercises without ammunition.
Will snap caps protect my gun during storage?
Using snap caps helps release tension on hammer springs when storing your firearms, which can reduce fatigue on internal components over time.
What's included in the 10-pack?
This pack contains 10 .22 Rimfire snap caps ready to use in your .22 rifles, pistols, or revolvers.
Are snap caps better than dry firing on an empty chamber?
Yes. Repeatedly striking an empty chamber with a firing pin can cause wear and potential damage to the pin. Snap caps safely absorb that impact instead.
