I have a buddy that swears by musket caps, but I've never tried them. I do know I despise the #11 caps, as I have an extremely high failure rate with them imo. I have a problem where sometimes the first shot it will just push it harder onto the nipple and won't go off, and I will have to c-o-c-k it and fire again for it to go off. I've tried changing the nipple, and made sure I have the primers seated, so I have no idea what could be the cause of it, but it's enough that's made me think about switching and trying musket caps. I haven't done it yet though.
