Introduction

I'm still waiting on my 1860. I ordered it from Jedediah Star, hopefully it will get here in a timely manner.
I haven't been able to find any #10 or #11 caps (still not sure which one will work best?), I ordered some from Academy and they said they should get them in about a week.
Once I do finally get everything all rounded up I'd greatly appreciate it if you'd teach me how to do everything properly.

I sent you a PM

Welcome from Indiana. “Guns of the West” on YouTube has some great videos on the ‘care & feeding’ for a Cap and Ball set-up.

Thank you. I'll be sure and check those out. You wouldn't happen to know any online stores that have #10 or 11 caps in stock would you?
