I have been very satisfied with the A-Zoom brand aluminum snap caps for my SxS and O/U shotguns. Earlier on I had plastic snap caps, but they invariably ended up sprung or broken.
As a personal safety practice - I only keep and use my snap caps in my house. Whenever my guns leave the house, the snap caps STAY IN THE HOUSE. Whenever my guns are in vehicle transit or being used at the range or in the field, ALL ammo is LIVE. That way, I'll never have an accidental discharge in the club house or in the field, mistaking live ammo for snap caps in a distracted moment.
And I never have snap caps and live ammo on my workbench at home at the same time.
This has worked for me,....so far, anyway.
