Help finding musket caps

[Pete112288]

I am having a hard time finding any in stock. Anyone know where some can be found near Vancouver is best but up to the Longview area will work too? The only place I have not called to check yet is Bob's in Longview. I prefer the RWS 1081. But honestly will probably buy the first ones I come across. Need to get the stepson out to shoot his first muzzy and I need to get out to sight in my new peep. I'm stocked up with 3+ pounds of powder and over 100 bullets but I literally have 6 musket caps to my name. I dont know how I let myself get so low.

Bobs will most likely have them. Have you ever tried #11's though? I've never had ignition problems with them and you can put rain gear on them, unlike musket caps, which keeps them secured on the nipple and pretty much waterproof.

Wenatchee stores have them if you want to travel??  Or if you ever make it this way I can pick some up and hold them for ya??  Not sure of the requirements to send items like this...

Bobcat said yesterday on here that Sunbirds in Chehalis has them.

I will have to call Bob's tomorrow. I dont really have the time to travel to get them right now. The only way I really can pull off Longview is my dad works up there so he can stop after work as long as I can talk to him, our conflicting work schedules keep us playing phone tag to voicemails. I had called Fisherman's Marine but that was a week or so ago. I'll have to try again to see if they got any in. I have some #11s because that is what my stepsons gun had for a nipple but I replaced it with a musket nipple and the original #11 nipple has since gone missing. My gun is a Vortek, and though I have never had any issues using musket caps with it going off I have heard too many bad stories on them to risk the #11s in a possibly damp hunting situation. Cause the nipple on the vortek I swear is near an inch long. So if anyone in the Vancouver area wants a tin of #11s hit me up. They are RWS and I think I used maybe 5 out of it.

I ordered 1000 mag number 11's last year because I couldn't find musket caps. I would just order them on line. you could get some other members together and make a big order to save on the 27.00 hazard shipping rate. The more you order you can lower the cost between each box of primers. Just a thought good luck.

I've used #11 rws caps for 10 years in some major downpours.never had a misfire with them. I wouldn't worry about it.

[washelkhunter]

No: 11 CCI Magnums always pop.

[Pete112288]

Problem solved. Bob's said they have both CCIs and RWS in stock so I will get some this week. Like I said before if anyone wants a tin of RWS #11s in the Vancouver area you can have them, only used less than 10 of them.

Skagit Arms has 10 boxes of them left. I just picked up 2
