Cap favorite

[Muddly]

RWS or CCI musket caps, when my P53 needs to get dirty.
Remington 11s. CCI 11s have a habit of splitting across the top. Not good as this will eventually pit the hammer recess.
Now that Rem is r.i.p, will whoever got the ammo division keep making caps?

CCI , Remington , Winchester. My guns don't seem to care.

I don't really have a preference. CCI or Remington, as long as they go bang, good enough for me.

RWS
Remington
NEVER CCI

Why?

Why?

Shoot competition and you’ll know. CCI musket caps are garbage made for reenactors shooting blanks.

I have used both CCI and Remington. The only issue I have come across is that the CCI’s seem to be a slight taller and didn’t fit all the way down on the nipples I was using. When I shot, quite often the cap didn’t go off the first time I pulled the trigger. Also they left a black film covering the nipple opening on the second pull. I filed the diameter of the nipples down just a small bit and they both fire great now.

I do shoot competition. I'll have to try RWS. I've never had any problems with CCI. I never use musket caps however.
