Just entered the dark zone and picked up a like new, used Pietta 1851 Navy Confederate.(44 Cal) Appears to be a Cabelas set with all the extra stuff. I took it out to shoot and all is well except for the in line capper tool.
It is a TDC (Cash Mfg) brass model and it does not center over the nipples so it is pretty much useless. I had to put the caps on with my fingers.
Anyone else have this problem? I looked on line and there are other brands with a slightly different feed lip like the CVA brand. Will that one work??
Anyway to modify the one I have? Seems if I file or grind down the feed lip end it would no longer hold the cap?
Thanks for any advice.
