Best number #11 Capper
 
Which number #11 cappers do you all like best? I've lost several and worn out a few more. Each one I've bought has either been a CVA or T/C, but unfortunately I can't remember which was which. By worn out, I mean the piece that the back of the cap rests against when pushing it onto the nipple has gotten bent back, and even with bending it forward again It seems like it's not strong enough and it doesn't get the caps on the nipple as tight as I'd like.

So which do you use? Which do you find the best?

I like the clear plastic ones with the T/C label. They hold about 11 #11 caps

I have worn out 3 or 4 cva's, lost two, found one of the two. cva use an very weak spring metal on theres. funny thing is, they are/where made in the usa.

why I keep buying them, I am not much of an polymer or plastic fan when it comes to capper. plus the brass looks good. ;)

Ted Cash is all i'll use. I've had one for 20 years, and it still works fine.

Ted Cash makes great cappers. His straight line for inlines and his tear drop for the sidelock rifles.

Sabot I have one just like the one in your photo. No telling how long I have had it. Over 30 years?? Maybe?? Not sure?? But it has been a long time. Although in the last ten years it hasn't been used much. But it is still going strong. Tom.

I've used a Knight (plastic) for 19 years.

Thanks guys looks like that's the one I need to order.

That being said, I checked it out and the CVA's are the ones that keep breaking on me, and the T/C's have been the ones I've lost. I've got an extra T/C I'm going to have to open to use next time I shoot, but I think I may order one of those to keep on hand.
