Supply source for percussion rifle components for starting out

[Snider shooter]

What did we used to pay for them 10 years ago? Like $10 or so?

Four years ago Green Diamond (JohnDeere) was selling #10 for $5.99 and #11 for 6.99 plus tax. I thought it must have been a mistake so bought all they had. Two months later they had restocked and again I bought them all. About 2 months later they stopped selling guns products. Last ones I bought from a store where close to $15. Our local shops can’t get any currently. I have enough to last probably until next fall so hopefully stuff improves by then.

Proline in Calgary apparently has #12 caps. Not sure who would have a gun setup for this though.

I have enough that I don't really need more. But more at a reasonable price would never hurt.

Paying $70 a 100 is just silly.

No. 12 nipples are made for original and reproduction Colt Walker and Dragoons, the big .44 revolvers that weigh four pounds or so, unloaded larger diameter than #11 might work on some nipples

Have used #12 Remingtons on my TC Hawken and other than being a loose fit they went bang quite well!
