CVA caps?

[Rendezvous Valley Trading]

I have a bunch as well of both the blue and black plastic “tins”. Can attest to them sticking sometimes but are powerful and work. Better than the cci caps we just bought in large quantity that don’t work at all

If your cleaning and preservation are first rate,there will be no problem. They are a bigger problem to deal with than pyrodex for corrosinn. Deep down in the breach of the barrel can give you problems. The outside of the breach and lock will also get a good coating of the cap spray. I used to use then and found out I needed to do better. Now I shoot Pyrodex and homemade corrosive caps. The worst you can do. Now my cleaning is better and so is the preservation.. Any and all newer made caps (last 40 years) will say Non Corrosive right on the container.

Five blister packs each containing 2 tins (plastics) of 100 caps all for $35, heck of a deal. They should be as reliable as new. I have open tins of caps in the basement that are older than those and they still work fine.

I was at my nearest Cabelas two hours ago and while they had Triple Seven and Pyrodex, there wasn't a percussion cap in the place; I asked !!!

Black powder is corrosive... load up and shoot Francis.

Actually, black powder is not corrosive, black powder fouling is corrosive. The same is true for the components of the cap. You will need to clean the gun anyways. Shoot them up.

The caps are long gone but I still have the tin.

Carol says I am a pack rat. What does Haddam mean?

Well when that powder is absorbing moisture from the air, she'll get corrosive at some point.

Fiocchi caps were in light blue plastic, reminded me of old time prophylactic packaging

I had some Fiocchi caps in a red plastic
