Been reading seaching here and other places.
1st question, use #10 caps? On these nipples they have a tendency to fall off or come loose requiring two strikes to fire the cap. Replace the nipples? Pinching the caps does not seem to work well due to full power loads. Some model nipples prefer different cap makers i read.
2nd question, hammer pull is STRONG! Like almost 2 thumbs strong sometimes. Based on another thread cleaned and found 2 caps stuck under the trigger spring. Helped a little bit. So how do i reduce the hammer pull?
3rd question, with full power loads, 40-45 grains, .451 ball shifts forward after firing and stops the cylinder from rotating. Will 454, 457 roundball help stop this? I think it will but have not tried yet. Have not measured my cylinders yet.
Not really finding my answers with google searches. May be there but this is a better place to ask i think.
Thanks in advance.
