I learned long ago to keep a #10 nipple and a musket nipple for my rifles for the times when I can't find #11's when 11's are available I buy them in bulk. I have never ran out If I see caps for a price I consider to be a good price I buy them all period, keep your wining to your self if ya'll weren't so tight you'd buy your supplies in larger quantities more then a pound or a tin at a time ! I bet those of you that do shoot centerfires or rimfires only buy your ammo 1 box at a time and then why your gun doesn't shoot to the same spot next year? I retired from the ammo industry after 21 years cartridges coming off the loader on two different shifts shoot different, each batch of powder is different same with bullets, primers, and brass. Muzzleloaders are no different each batch of caps no matter who's they are are different SO BUY ALL YOU CAN WHEN YOU CAN Also the cap manufactures are not going to make caps when they can't keep up with making primers for center fire they come out of the same production lines !

[QUOTE="Rebel bull, post: 2550666, member: 56886"] I learned long ago to keep a #10 nipple and a musket nipple for my rifles for the times when I can't find #11's when 11's are available I buy them in bulk. I have never ran out If I see caps for a price I consider to be a good price I buy them all period, keep your wining to your self if ya'll weren't so tight you'd buy your supplies in larger quantities more then a pound or a tin at a time ! I bet those of you that do shoot centerfires or rimfires only buy your ammo 1 box at a time and then why your gun doesn't shoot to the same spot next year? I retired from the ammo industry after 21 years cartridges coming off the loader on two different shifts shoot different, each batch of powder is different same with bullets, primers, and brass. Muzzleloaders are no different each batch of caps no matter who's they are are different SO BUY ALL YOU CAN WHEN YOU CAN Also the cap manufactures are not going to make caps when they can't keep up with making primers for center fire they come out of the same production lines !
