I don't know how many of you are aware of the thread on the Open Range about caps & nipples.
Mako put up a nice article with pics on the topic.
Quite interesting!
http://www.theopenrange.net/forum/index.php?topic=9093.0
So.........Since Remington #10 & #11 caps have the same inside diameter (#10s have a deeper cup) & since I was looking to up my stash of caps, I decided to give #11s a try.
So I start looking -- OH MY, how the price of caps have risen........................
Then the clouds parted and I found that Gamaliel has them for $45 per thousand + free shipping (you gotta pay the hazmat fee though).

So...............................I bought 5000 at $44 per thousand.
They have #10s in stock too, but I have 7 or 8000 of those.
I'll see how the #11s do.
If yer looking for caps, they have a nice supply.
Might be a good time to stock up at a good price.
