Can anyone point me in the direction of a capper that will work with No. 10 caps please?
I can find them for the 11s but that's all. The 10s end up sideways and jammed.

Oer the years, I've never found any type of capper to work well, with any size of cap, and I've tried a few!
Still can't beat the fingers! Once I've got the cap on, I ten index each chamber and lower the hammer gently on the cap. Then pressing on the hammer to seat the cap fully. Never had one fail since.
Remember though..... got to be carefull!!
That sounds like a very dangerous system to me!
I disagree with you 100%. It will be interesting what other shooters think. Not a safe practice.

I can't find a smilie to really fit - EEEEEEAAaaak.
I find Remington number 11's fit fine on my .36 Colt 61 and my .44 Remington NMA push on GENTLY with a wooden dowl to make sure...
CCI caps - NOT impressed, I did try their Magnum version though and they fitted fine.
That's obviously your opinion. But perhaps based on your own confidence in your own gun handling, or others' confindence in you.
I'm in a club of over 40 regular members. All of us ex-cartridge pistol shooters, some of whom shot to a very high International standard. I'd reckon to a man, we all follow this practice. In the 11 years of B/P pistol shooting, not one incident. All we get is reliable ignition.
Likewise, when shooting traditional duelist CAS in Florida, again, this was an accepted practice.
Of course, you should carry on in the same vein that you are comfortable and confident, but that does not mean you have to denegrade another for he does not fit into your idea of "what is safe"......

Hi
Have you thought about getting them converted to take shotgun primers?
Iam quite partial to the effect the cold can have on some nipples.

Have a look at Ted Cash cappers I have 2 1 snail and the oval type works great with all primers. http://www.tdcmfg.com/
