Caps and Powder

[ETipp]

I will soon be getting a kit for #11s
I want to try them before I get low on the caps I have.
Thanks.

Yup. Same here.

So read an article the other day about a powder shortage. Where is everyone getting there powder? And caps. I have some but they seems hard to find these days?

Another option for caps besides making your own caps is a mag spark adapter which I am sure most know about. I use one at the range or target practice.

Midwest Reloads has been reported by members as a scam site.

Ok, maybe that explains why they have so many caps on hand.
Guys sorry about this.
Songwriter thanks for looking out and heads up.

You can order the prime all chemicals from a fireworks supply . It is cheaper by the pound. Be safe

I just posted this in 2 other threads, but want to make sure y'all see it....

Graf's is a great shop, but their prices are going up again. Their musket 4-wing caps went from $135/1000 to $169/1000 just in the past few weeks.

They used to have a store in St Charles, MO, but sold it around Covid time. A new guy there at the new store made an ordering mistake, and ordered over 75,000 4-wing caps in 2022. I heard about it, went in and talked to them, and they are anxious to unload as many of these musket caps as possible. Regular price right now is $10.xx/100, but they said if I bought a brick of them they'd sell them for $9/100. A brick of 1000 ended up running me about $97! (including tax)

I told them that I'd post this on the ML forum, and they thought that would be great! They said they would work with y'all as far as shipping and hazmat chgs. It sounded like they might charge for those like Graf's does - maybe about $23.50 for hazmat and $12.95 or so for actual shipping?? These guys seem like good guys to work with!

Their phone number is on the cash receipt. Give them a call, and tell them you heard about it on the ML forum!
