Back to Basics: How To Make #11 Percussion Caps

For those of us who enjoy muzzleloading, you now have an easy and inexpensive way to make your own percussion caps. This tool is only designed to make #11 caps, but it is a great start nonetheless.

Many people enjoy muzzleloading today in the form of target shooting, reenacting, and even hunting. Some people will go as far as casting their own bullets, but rarely are you able to go beyond that. Now you have a way to make your own caps. This piece of gear is made by the same people who make the 22lr reloading kit. Paired together with their Prime-all kit, you can make your own #11 percussion caps in minutes…taking into account that the priming compound you use needs to dry out before use, of course.
