Thanks Ken. I was wondering since Ruger says that you can dry fire the gp100 safely, are snap caps really necessary, or will repeated dry firing of the weapon damage it? Also can I use spent shell casings as a snap cap as I have hundreds of those on hand anticipating the day I buy the supplies to reload.
