Hi, some of you might remember me from the post where I Inherited a jukar long rifle from my father. I have everything I need to shoot except the #11 caps. I can only find that caps in quantities over 1k and that just seems to be way more then I need. I have also found the cap maker from 22reloader, but not sure that's a route I want to go just yet. I was hoping someone may have some they are willing to part with for a new guy. Give me a quanity and price.

I dont know where you are located, but I can stroll into almost any back road mom&pop shop that sells hunting/fishing/trapping gear and pull them off the wall from dozens of tins. Back road shops in small towns dont seem to get overrun with panic buying. Might be your best bet.
If you can’t find them locally as Ames suggested, you may want to try a FTF with a forum member, as I believe Hazmat rules prohibit just mailing caps. Your forum profile doesn’t say where you live. Likely a forum member close by.
FTF, or face to face, as in person.
Just bought some from The Reloading Authority - Graf & Sons. Shipping is high as they are hazmat,@$20 fee + shipping.

I have noticed latley some of the Walmart in Tennessee have been having CCI#11 for $4.96 a tin picked up 4 for a friend as with everything it's hit and miss situation good luck and eventually it will level out to some extent (maybe)
The Wal-Mart's in NW Florida have all stopped sales of everything black powder related

$4.96 is good. Recently saw a local shop with #10’s and wanted $12 a tin. He seemed offended when i told him my pistol could collect dust a little longer. lol
There is a gun shop on Gunbroker.com selling CCI #11 - 5,000 for $300 + $30 shipping.
You personally cannot ship powder, caps, primers without a hazmat license.
So, if you have a lot of need locally, that would probably be a good deal.

I was shooting the cannon on the fourth
Using some really old #11 caps almost 20 years in the tin
No fails
I stocked up on them again when Obama took over so I have enough
I would not hesitate to make my own either
I have some great Blue Angel stuff, some is framed
NAS (Naval Air Station) Pensacola is I think a better air museum than the Smithsonian, and you gotta do the light house your too. The guided tours by Gets are the best!

I thought someone near you would have have come up with some. But you have to do what you have to do. I was upset about paying 6.5¢ a piece for caps earlier this year, but 20¢ each, ouch.
I shoot in palm bay Florida. I have CCI #11 and dynamite noble no. 1075. I will sell a tin or two if you were to visit palm bay sometime. I just paid $12.95 for 100 caps.
Do you have a place in palm bay that has them in stock? I'm up there for work once a week.

Add on some black powder to the order to even out the hazmat fee....they usually have some in stock. I had to settle for Schuetzen (sic?) but for 19 bucks a lb good enough...I am still shooting.
I purchased the caps at the NMLRA show in Friendship in June. Buffalo Bills Shooting store in Orlando typically has percussion caps in stock.
