Default remington #11

does anyone know where I can find some remington #11 caps that are in stock and won't cost me $100 in hazmat fees.


$20 to 27.50 in hazmat is fine.


don't try to order percussion caps from gander mountain.

I know Cabella's sells them. Just make sure you pickup the tin indicated for #11 as they also sell #10 caps that are in the same type tin container.

Corey - I'm curious as to why you are buying your caps through the mail and willing to pay a hazsmat fee. You would have to buy an awful lot of caps to justify even a $20 fee. I'm sure you have a Gander Mtn, Cabelas, Bass Pro, or something within driving distance. Christmas is coming soon so my suggestion is to make a list, check it twice, and make a road trip! Hope you and your wife had a nice Thanksgiving.

Corey, bad as I had to say it... the local shop's price is probably as good as it's going to get. Sheesh!! I hadn't realized just how much caps and such have increased in price.

A store around here was selling them for $7.99 a tin. I told the man he was crazy. So I am guessing they had to pay haz mat then marked them up to make a profit. So when I went by a Gander Mountain, they had the Winchester Magnum #11 caps for $4.99 a tin and I picked up twenty tins. That should last me a while.

they told me, when they order them, it will be with a big hazmat order.

Don't know if you have found any, but third Generation in El Reno has some. $20 Haz Mat. plus $7.95 shipping. Just bought some plus Pyrodex RS. $2.99/100.

I hear that. I just ordered a Lyman .54 cal. Trade Rifle from Mid-south. It will be about a week before it ships.

Bought 1000 #11 Remington caps and 5#'s of Pyrodex RS from Third Generation last night. This will ship immediately.
