Spanish Star Super A

Can't find snap caps for 9mm largo anywhere.

Would 38 Super or 9x23 work? I bet they make snap caps for those.

I'd make it from a live round or number of them. Drill four holes big enough to allow powder out and fire primer with a torch. These things are something you have to have a handle on...then if the primer doesn't blow out drill it out and use a blot of epoxy for a filler. Also I've used pencil eraser if the primer holes allow...small erasers from mechanical pencils.

38 super should work and they are available. 9x23 winchester looks a bit shorter than 9x23 Largo. Will try researching a bit more before buying.

Use a old fired case with pencil eraser or a dab of cyclone in primer cup.

I like to use black gasket maker. Smear a gob on the end of the cartridge, let cure for 24 hours, then cut flush with a razor blade.

Nice idea! Very professional looking. How well does that hold up?

Each of those dummy rounds has been dry fired several hundred times.
