Appreciate that! I placed the order and at least the robot says they'll ship here.
Shipping Caps to Alaska

I dropped by Granite View Sports in Delta Junction yesterday and they had #10 and #11 caps on the shelves.
I make my own percussion caps and am local if you would like to buy some.
Thanks. I was able to order the fixings for making caps. I haven't started making any yet as I've been able to accumulate an adequate supply and (unfortunately) haven't gone through very many this year.
If you make your own with the tap-o-cap double up the aluminum can so it's two thicknesses instead of one. Granite view seems to be the only reliable source in this neck of the woods and Swanny doesn't sell caps only black powder. The Alaska rondy is going to be in Delta next summer, maybe I'll see you there?
Thanks for the tip. Granite view was where I bought my last batch of caps. Haven't seen any on the shelves here in Fairbanks for a very long time. Hitting the rondy sounds like fun. The last one I went to was on Chena Hot Springs Road and the smoke was so thick you couldn't see across the field.

Swanny is a good source for supplies, usually has plenty of powder too.
It's good to have him here. I should look him up but have plenty of powder for the time being. What I need most now is to make some time to burn some powder. Always seems to be a very narrow window between when I get everything done for the summer and when cold, dark and snowy sets in.
