Dang I ordered some this morning just got a notification from FedEx they will be here tomorrow!
I swapped out most of my nipples to the slixshoot brand. I think they designed them to no 10 caps. I heard you can squeeze the number 11s and they will work? Worse case I’ll throw the old nimples back in.

I’m curious what do most use #10s or #11s?
I never used anything but Remington though I purchased a few tin of the #11 CCI and now these RWS. I heard they are really good I hope they are. RWS makes nice rimfire ammo.

RWS is the best cap money can buy IMHO! They use a different nomenclature, 1075 for the 10 & 11 equivalent and 1075 PLUS for the “magnum” equivalent of the same. They fit most nipples w/o issues for me, I do use a push stick tho. I can count with one hand misfires I have had with RWS as opposed to Winchester (relabeled CCI’s) that were up to 11% FTF and 6% for CCI. Remington has very good caps too, they were at 0% FTF for me. These number are form a couple of years samples on over 4000 caps. Rems 10 and 11 are the same caps, 10s having a longer skirt that hugs most nipples better. I had a couple of misfires with Rems No 12s out of 400 or so, but they were much older caps. Hope this helps.
 
While I gotta admire those that post where Caps are available, I gotta thing that once the post goes up, the available supply disappears in a matter of hours, if not minutes! :rolleyes:
 
Rws caps do not go near my guns. They are brittle and pieces have stuck in my chin and nose, good thing for safety glasses. I use what I have left to clear the nipples but i hold the guns upside down. Italian caps do the same thing but Rem and CCI do not.

They work for me every time and preferred over CCI which I use .The 10.75 take the place of 10/11 another reason and have never experienced your complaint ,hate to spread rumors !/Ed

CCI caps are the safest primers out there.

Hard to shred a cap when it doesn't go POP.

They are good for dry fire practice though.

Sounds like the RWS 1075 PLUS (magnum) caps. Way, way more power than is needed for BP. Much more fragmentation and sparks too.
