How much difference is there in #10 bs #11?They are hard to find right now i am looking for more #10's at present
Nice fix, gotta make due with what we've got these days. Always on the lookout for a used tap-o-cap at gun shows, anyone ever see / use one?? I found some nice detailed blueprints for a DIY set, but probably beyond my garage machining abilityI just picked up a Pedersoli Hawken, my first BP rifle.
I have over 2000 #10 caps for my pistols but couldn't find #11s anywhere.
So in doing some research, I read that one guy took his rifle nipple, sized for #11 caps and put it in a drill and filed it down a touch to fit #10s.
I tried it and it worked great.
You don't need to take much off. The #10s are just a bit smaller than the #11s. But now, my 10s all fit and function flawlessly.
I have a hard enough time remembering what size cap covers my head. Now I'm supposed to know what cap covers my nipples?
