#10 And #11 Caps At Cabela's

[Okie Hog]

Today my wife and il visited the Bass Pro and Cabela's shops in Oklahoma City. The Cabela's store had large quantities of Remington #10 and #11 caps on display. But there were no price tags.

Did you ask anyone?

They're like $14 a tin, I just bought some .

They’re no longer selling online.. calling
remington again tomorrow to follow up on my emails.

 

[Stantheman86]

They must have just stopped, I ordered 1000 of them online 2 weeks ago and got them. I'll burn these up this summer in my Dragoons.

Probably idiots buying them 20,000 at a time to resell on GB made them stop online sales.

Yep, asked the folks at the gun counter. They did not know the price. Don't need any caps and i went no further.

Went to the local gun show and most of the vendors were young people selling newly purchased ammo at twice the price of big stores. Never saw those type of price gougers at a show before.

I sat through part of the Board of Directors meeting at Friendship's NMLRA shoot last week. The availability of percussion caps was discussed. Seems that caps are quite scarce and what's out there is all that there is. The folks who manufacture them are at present fulfilling military contracts and caps are on hold for now. Unfortunately, 2025 was the likely date for production again. So, if you need some and find any for sale, I'd buy them. By the way, I saw individual tins at Friendship selling for $20 each....and they were selling.

Kinda like a restaurant without prices on the menu. If you have to ask for the price, you can't afford to eat there.

Our club was lucky enough to get a small supply right before things went south. A retiring member just brought a bunch of stuff to the club to sell off and there were 800 #11 Remingtons in there. Figured it would be prudent to purchase those for the club also.

Dunham's has tons of CCI #11 Magnums, which CCI still likely makes for the hunting market.

Remington really isn't worried about making #10 caps for percussion revolvers. It's like when I read an article about how little profit manufacturers make on .22 ammo, but they make it because they always have and customers want it. I really don't think percussion caps are a lucrative sector of CCIs catalog but they make primers , and customers expect CCI to come through

Dunhams $12.00 a tin no online sales.

I did that last week. Some guy was selling T shirts. I blurted out "Yeah,I'll take one." He tells me the price after He brings me mine. $25.00 for a white cotton T shirt with a Confederate flag?

Hello Y'all; I switched over to musket caps for now to shoot in my Hawken. I will go back to #11 caps when the shortage is over. I payed about 11cents per cap. Not good but not bad and I am shooting.

Just bought 5 tins today from our local Cabela's. $70.75. So roughly $.14 a shot. Twice as expensive as .22LR ammunition.

Saw some#11 at the Washington county Pa. gun show ranging from $3 to $10 a pack of 100.

I just purchase 500 #10 from Cabelas on line three weeks ago. Had them shipped to the store! Cheper than being sent to your home! Total with tax, fees etc was $66. They were going for $10 bucks a tin. The price was Ok, but the shipping is always high due to the Hazmat garbage! It took almost two weeks to get to me via Fed Ex!! I called and complained to Cabelas about the constant delay, and they gave me a $20 refund because of the delay. That made my cost for 500 caps $40! They showed up at the local Cabelas. I went to pick them up. Done.

3.00 per tin is where they should be. At what they are sellin for now should come with a free rape whistle

My suggestion would be to not try and hold your breath waiting for that kind of price to return. Kind of like the Dinosaur, long gone! (IMHO)
