I’ve got right at 700 #11 caps. I even have about 400#10 caps. I’m not gonna buy any as I have moved on to flintlocks. I’ll spend my money on flints and powder.
PSA.... Check your local Walmart.

Just came from two Walmarts in my area in Seminole Co. Central Florida and nothing to report. 
The Walmart near me here in mid west Wisconsin, had over 10 packs of CCI #11's for $5.63.
That was this morning. I was going to take a picture, but had left my phone in the car.

Found some at a Wally World this evening. They weren’t out this morning. I picked up a few and left most.

I had a really nice Schimmel that need some work and Brad at cabin creek fixed it right up. The wally's in east york is my local. Not a lot historical to see here in York. Indian Steps Museum, Harley factory, There are some interesting things about the river at the Susquehanna center in Columbia on the east side of the river. Wrightsville is right across, that is where the Federals burned the bridge in 1863 to keep the Rebs from crossing the river. The original boundary between Maryland and Pennsylvania was supposed to be just a mile of two south of Wrightsville. About 1730, A guy named Cresap was sent by Maryland to throw the Pennsylvanians off the went shore of the River and the resulting disputes and fighting was called Cresap's war.

Went and check last night at the local Wally World, but nothing. They did have True Oil Gunstock Finish clearance at $2.50 a bottle, so I picked up a few of those.
Yes i did i put the musket nipple in it. Have no troubles now. I picked up 3 tins CCI from maulmart in Paducah, Ky. $5.62 each. Neither Lebanon nor Mtn. Grove, Mo. had any ML stuff displayed yet.

My pal's wife works at the Harley plant. He's a major collector of old Harley's, having been a judge at their meets, etc. She's in QC and does gigs with a country music band at local haunts.
No such thing at my local Wal-Mart as of 10:30AM EDT this morning

Found some today at Walmart in High Ridge, MO. It's amazing they haven't jacked up the price on these yet.
Grab them before someone else gets them.
As of 5:30 this evening, the Wally World on Bleachery Rd in Asheville had 10 or so tins of CCI #11's, 2 lbs of Pyrodex RS, and a small display of unmentionable BP supplies.
Caps were Hipster Town priced, though: $9.77 per tin.
But they were there...

They probably won't be by lunch time tomorrow
Yep - it was not a huge display. The guy working the SG dept. (nice guy) said the BP supplies had just come in & they'd just put up the display.
Just went through a 2 day multi email (multi employees involved) regarding the lack of caps throughout the SE. The first employee assured me they could be shipped through their fulfillment center. Then I get a second, third, fourth email asking if I was pleased with communication. The fifth email finally confirmed percussion caps cannot be shipped from the fulfillment center to customers or their local Walmart. Confirmed what I already knew, Walmart has gotten so big, they don’t know what they can or can’t do, but will send multiple emails asking about employee performance. My last email gave all a failing grade.
Rural King sells guns too. It's like Walmart but not woke. I wonder if they would carry percussion caps.
Not that i know of. We have RK in Paducah n they told me they do not carry them or Black powder

Things have gone crazy in the last few years as far as prices go. I can remember when I first started shooting ML I thought that .59 cents was a lot for a tin of caps was a lot. At that time there were several different brands also. I guess I'll have to get busy and make some more of my own.
Aww their smokeless gun section is pretty good bummer. Cabelas / Bass Pro does carry black powder but not at every store.
This old blind squirrel found a nut today. Walmart in Wabash had CCI caps, $5.62 per 100, same price as last three years, no inflation here. Grabbed three tins and left about ten or so on the hook. These with what I got the last few years from there will outlast me, so I'm good for life. Never hurts to have enough to pass onto a new shooter or whoever takes my stuff when I'm gone. Also heard the Walmart in Rochester had them also, but as of yesterday nothing at the Warsaw store. Carry on.
