Been away from my muzzle loaders for too long and want top get back in the groove. My Remington replicas used to thrive on RWS 1075 caps, but I can't seem to find then anywhere. Does anyone know of a source for these caps? Thanks and have s great day,....................Ray

Ray, I also haven't seen any of them in many years in my area the NE. I too used to use them because they fit my nipples with out falling off and the RWS, GERMAN CAPS were very much hotter at least I thought so? I still have some empty tin's of them and some of the later plastic ones, all empty. don't ask me why I saved them?

I bought some RWS caps locally this week, $35 for a box of 250, he wasn't even sure they were still being made till he got some in. A heck of a jump in price. I like the RWS myself but also bought a few CCI's for $5 a 100 count can at Walmart when they put out the muzzle loader supplies.

I bought a can of 3F Goex but he was down to a few pounds, mostly 4F. He has carried Schuetzen but has no idea when he will get more in. With Goex gone it will probably put a load on the supply till it gets leveled out.
