Natchez has l#10 and #11 CCI percussion caps,,1000 for $ 114.00 plus shipping and hazmat fee.
I couldn’t find them anywhere around my neck of the woods.
 
As of 8:30 PM EST, they were out of everything except CCI #11 and CCI #11 magnum caps.
 
I bought a tin of 250 today at my favorite local gun shop for $45. I believe that's 2.5 cents each.
 
The local Cabela's has standard CCI #11, 15 bucks per 100, which makes me wince. At least they have them in stock at the moment. Glad I stocked up a few years ago after the last shortage. (Same with certain powders and primers.) Bet a lot of folks here did the same. One advantage of my age is it doesn't take as much to have a 'life time' supply. :)

$12 a tin with no hazmat 1 is to much ? what do you want egg in your beer ? $12 is a good price in the current economy this is not 25 years ago oh wait we were in the middle of a shortage then when I had to scramble to find any kind of caps even going to the extreme of using small rifle primers to be able to shoot ( I was supplying 5 kids at a average of 10 shoots a year ) a tin cost about 3-4 dollars a tin now your complaining about $12 ? cry me a river!!!!!!
 
No, six bucks a tin at Wal-Mart is a good price in todays economy and shows it still can be done. If folks enjoy over paying for products throw yourself a party. If you can't find the proper pricing, then pay what you need to, to enjoy your shooting while saving a few bucks with no hazmat.
 
Thanks! I ordered from Natchez. What a horrible website to navigate!!
Yeah, theirs is one of the worst, but they have been around a long time, been ordering from them for decades. I believe at one point, and it may still be they were a sister company, or related in some way to Midsouth, and have been around as long. Somewhere around here I have a catalogue from Midsouth from the 1980's. Never have had a problem with either though.
 
On a recent long- distance trip, the guys I traveled with stopped at every Cabelas and Bass Pro along the way - about 7 stores total. At the first one I notice 5 packs of CCI #11 caps on the display rack. Next store, same thing. Third store the same. So, I asked about it and the section manager said they were told to only put out 5 packs at a time on the peg and just replace the amount sold so 5 were displayed. He did say if I wanted more than 5 packs there was plenty in the back. They are $14.94 per 100. I don't need any, but of the remaining 4 stores we stopped at, sure enough they each had 5 packs on the peg, with the exception of one store that did not have any whatsoever - no black powder section at all.
