Musket caps

[Stan flanery]

I was finally able to purchase an Enfield Rifle and I can’t wait to shoot it. The problem is finding musket caps. Could y’all recommend brand of caps and best place to order from. I’ve never shot musket caps and they are not available near me.
Thanks in advance.

Respectfully Stan

I have used nothing but RWS for almost 40 years and wouldn't switch. Here is a good place to get caps aand powder:

Most companies that sell no 11 caps have musket caps

For general shooting, get a #11 nipple for your Enfield. The caps are cheaper and there is no hazmat charge for shipping.

Track of the Wolf has the PH replacement nipple part number ERS-S.

Grenadier1758 thanks, I wasn’t sure if that was an option but a good idea. I will give it a try.

Yep, RWS are probably the best. I've been using them for decades, but will use whatever I can get.

Just got one for #11s from track of wolf for my Zouave. Works fine. Had a minor amount of hesitation at first but found that as long as I keep the channel at lowest point by tilting the gun a bit when I put powder in it doesn't hesitate.
