Can these be used in conjunction with live ammunition to help fix recoil anticipation? I'm concerned that they might melt if the barrel is too hot.

There's Real Good Chance They Could Melt and Be Hard Eject. Also Could Make a Very Difficult Mess to Get Out of Chamber. I Recommend Not Try This with Tipton Snap Caps !!!

Well they don't actually eject when fired like normal live rounds, you have to pull the slide back to eject the dummy round but yes I have seen them used in conjunction with live ammo and haven't heard or seen any issues with the gun melting the rounds casings

Yes, I beiieve they could. In fact, I would recommend some kind of cushions to prevent the gun moving around in the bracket. I have a towel around the barrel now but intend to get a similar sock to protect the whole shotgun.

To be honest I don't know but, I used them for for AirSoft I got shot with on the Right side of the Glass with a BB going at 400 Feet Per Second (fps). It only made a crack. Hope this gives you an Idea of how strong they are.

I can't imagine why they would interfere with the shooting of the rifle. Whether or not you wanted to use them would depend on if you are comfortable wearing hearing protection while hunting.

I don't see why not. They do shatter nice. If you can get a deadcenter shot you can put a nice hole in the middle without shattering the whole thing. Did it once. Kids were impresed with Dear old Dad! this was with their Daisy Red Ryder rifles

I haven't used it specifically for that, there is a heat rating listed on their website and I don't remember it off the top of my head. With that said I used blue first to attach the front night sight on my Glock 19 and it was loose after 100 rounds, used red and it hasn't budged since. Not sure how the temperature would compare although I assume it would be considerably lower for my application. If you can't find the info you need I'd suggest emailing a manufacturer, they have to use something.

Yes they do I really like them but be careful don't touch the barrel it's extremely hot.

I haven't received mine yet but I don't believe they will lessen the recoil any. my raging bull has a built in compensator those don't really do much either, but they look cool. I have not seen any product that does buffer recoil. I was unable to find grips on amazon to fit my 444 as it has round butt, meaning mounting screw is on bottom. I did find Hogue grips on planet optics that do fit it. problem they ar 107.00. no grip will lessen recoil.........

Yes you could use for that. I've used them to "stone" my trigger assembly in my S&W; 629.

No they will not, they are made for a gun that shoots pellets. Perhaps check the manufacturer's website to see what ammunition it will use.

Thanks for the answer. I will be picking up a couple of them. I bought a Remington one at Dicks and when I pulled it out of the wall a door opened and half the pellets went all over the floor. I will have to try this. Thanks again.

I have no experience with that but I will bet that this is exactly what these things are for. I use them to sleep better and i know people use the for gun firing ranges so thats your answer right there!

Hi there LK - I just read the package for these glue sticks and it says for use in high temp guns only - 410 degrees F

Yes. They are too light and break the sound barrier. While this may appeal to some, it throughs accuracy out the window. You need to use heavier pellets, that will take care of the problem. Also it can take a couple hundred pellets down range for the rifle to break in. A good source of information can be found at the pyramyd air web site.

I use them to check feeding on my lever action rifle after I have done modifications to make sure all is cycling correctly. Beats the heck out of using live ammo!

I use them in my ammunition cans. I am not sure how long they would last under other situations.

That's a great question. From what I read when I got them, these Snap Caps are designed to cycle just like live ammo, although I have not tried randomly mixing them yet, I am definitely going to do that for my mis-fire training. I have read stories from other shooters who do that all the time, and the only safety concern that I found was the possibility of forgetting what you have in the magazine! One person got distracted and thought he had a Snap Cap in one mag, but it still had a live round in it! (NO ONE WAS HURT), but he learned the scary way to make sure of what you have loaded. Hope that helps.
