Should you replace Snap Caps occasionally? Do they wear out?

I am not sure, most are pretty long term rated, but I would look at the primer area and make sure it has some cushion still and not just sagging.

My experience is that the A-Zoom snap caps are much more durable than the plastic bodied ones. I've worn out plenty of those. (After a while the spring loaded primer section doesn't come back up anymore.)

Jeff,
There was a Jeff Bergquist in my neighborhood growing up. Were you raised in Wayzata per chance. (Sorry, no PMs)
