Here's a safety question for all you Pietta Remington 1858 owners (or anyone else with an opinion.) I have a tin of both #10 and #11 caps. I found that by pinching the #11's slightly I could get them to fit on the nipples of my Remington. That being said I think most people use #10's. I have read that most cross-fires actually are caused by poor-fitting caps. Am I running a risk by using the pinched #11's?
Thanks for your advice.
