CCI #11 Percussion Caps

[Brokenbear]

Does anyone know anyone who actually knows if CCI is actually building percussion caps currently ...all I have seen from CCI are scalpers on Gbroker ..and what primers I have found are the 1075+ DWS German stuff ..

I hear of a few small shops that pop up with CCI's occasionally but I honestly chalk that up to old or over stock carried into this hard spot

But none I have seen in the places like Grafs,Powder valley and Inc, Natchez, Midsouth and using Wallyworld's search nothing for 100+ miles radious

It's start'in to crimp my shooting ...I've got a serious quantity of the unmentionable primers ..I just may have to find someone with too many #11's and not enough of the unmentionable kind

A lot of my friends are in the same boat. Been thinking on seeking a trade of some of my unmentionables also to help them out. I have an ample supply myself.

Tell your nearest supplier that a pawnshop in Poteau, Oklahoma has nearly 10,000 CCI 11s. Not an error. He accidentally put an extra zero on his order. If he got them, surely others can also. I just bought 200 three weeks ago. Dale [BTW: $5.00 per 100]

Bear from our conversation the other night I believe we are about 1.5 hours apart. I have plenty, if you are hard up we could meet somewhere between and I could sell you a few tins. I'm off I-55 south of St. Louis. If you want to arrange something, shoot me a PM. Justin

I bought 55 tins of CCI's for $5.00 a tin several months ago.
For those that will accuse me of hoarding...I left 20 tins for others.
Pawn shops are the place to look.

What a great find!
I’m down to my last partial tin of CCI’s. I shot some Remington #11s at the range last weekend. They seem pretty weak, I don’t care for them, but I have a few hundred. A few of the Remington caps didn’t have priming compound in them

Just bought 5 tins at $4.95 ea. At a local shop

The Lawton Academy store and the WalMart on Quanah Parker often have #11 caps.

If you Live in Southern Missouri or near Berryville, Arkansas (North Central AR) the Muzzle Loader Shop has plenty.

Justin ..THANKS ..I will keep your kind offer in reserve as I have enough 1075's for about 4 more range sessions
IT is encouraging to pyeu of at least a trickle coming out of CCI!!!

don't know what is going on.i have searched all over the net looking for # 10's with no luck.a few years ago i had the same problem and found out that the plastic cap made for a child's cap gun was a perfect fit except you spent more time digging the plastic part out of the nipple than loading the thing.well i can not even find them anymore.any ideas ?? thks.

Someone will no doubt "make up" a shortage of Flints! Just another benefit of using a flintlock!

I've been to two Wal-Mart stores and inquired about #11 percussion caps and was told by each department head that they were sold out and no more were going to be ordered. I find that rather odd because the hunting season hasn't begun here and they have no interest in replenishing their stock yet they have guns to sell but no means to fire them. It just seems to get crazier and crazier.

 

[Okie Hog]

Needed a printer cartridge and went by the Lawton WalMart on Quanah Perker. There are always #11 caps on the shelf. This morning there were ten tins priced at $4.96 each.

Does anyone know anyone who actually knows if CCI is actually building percussion caps currently

I used their "Contact Us" mail this morning to ask that question and will share their reply when received...

I think.we are seeing a political game in the modern vs traditional world. Everyone seems to have 209 or #10 in stock, modern BP is pushing on our hobby as people grab whatever they could...last years panic.

I ordered 500 #11 from Dixie at $30 per because of the aforementioned issues plus HAZMAT fee. 3-weeks later Academy had a full rack at normal prices. Even Wally world is sold out due to folks buying all in one swoop aka hoarding. Both in Arkansas.

# 10's are non existent in my area, at least I can't seem to find any, in NEW ENGLAND.
