musket percussion caps

[randyb]

Does anyone know of a supplier in southern indiana that carrys musket percussion caps. I have my first 3 band enfield and while I have plenty of flints, #10 and #11 caps, I have none :-( Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!

Couple of options:
Gander Mountain can get them. They usually sell them at the Indy stores
OR
Call Jerry Eder at 317.933.3441 Mary Eder or his son will probably answer the phone and if he does not have them they will know where. He is down near Bloomington/Atterbury.

Hope that helps.

Cheers, DonK

I picked up a couple of tins of them just 2 weeks ago at the Outdoorsman Sport Shop on 135/county line, I thought the price was a little on the high side.. But I had not purchased any in a while and I was free to walk away and they are free to ask what they feel is right...

Ok well in that case, they do have a decent firearms section, It not fantastic, but they have a fair amount of repro black powder & cowboy era guns along with the modern hunting rifles, And they have lots of Fishing & hunting supplies, And they have a pretty good reloading area.. I would not drive up here special but if you are in that neck of the woods drop in..

another place to try is at the Friendship In. Fall and spring shoots hosted by the NMLRA. Always a bunch of shooters there. Go to the NMLRA's website for info.
