For the musket caps.. all I can get are the CCI. They work great on my Black Mountain Magnum. For #11 caps I like CCI magnum caps, Remington 40% hotter, and Dynamite Noble 1075 RWS.

I've always pretty much used CCIs too. I recently bought a couple of tins of Remingtons because I was out of caps and that's all that was available. They seem to work fine, but I think I like the CCIs better.

For hunting I use the Dynamit Noble 1075+

for target practice I usually try to burn CCI's

The DN 1075 RWS is my preference by a long way next is CCI #11 Mag. I bought several thusand 1075 years a go when I heard they were going to quit importing the and I am almost out been saving them for hunting. Are they available again?

The Dynamit Nobel name came from a German scientist.

CCI mags do the trick...anything running hot has given me more success that 'standard.'
