hi. I just got my two new Uberti revolvers and looking for all my old gear. I haven't shot seriously since Navy Arms/Western Arms was still making quality civil war-era pieces (like the cook and bros carbine and Tucker & Sherrard revolvers). Looking forward to shooting soon. Can someone please tell/show me how to load a snail capper? Got all my straight-line cappers loaded but this snail capper is got me stumped.
thx

Can you open it? Once you open it, just put your caps in it. Shake it a little and the caps will automatically turn with the hole up. Make sure you have it in the correct side.
 
Unless yer shooting an unaltered Remington copy or a Ruger Old Army, after using that snail capper you'll never want to use any straight-line capper again. Hate loading those things, you can fill a snail capper and shot all day if you fill it.
