1858 New Army Guns
What size percussion caps do you use?
I am about to order an 1858 Remington New Army .44 Caliber. I’ve seen mixed reviews about whether to use #10 or #11 caps. Which is better to use for that gun? Because Cabela’s does not say what it takes.
The owner’s manual will tell you which caps to use. Depending on the manufacturer, most revolvers use the smaller #10 cap. The #11 cap will fit but is subject to coming off the nipple and causing the cylinder to jam. Since you won’t be using your revolver in any gun fights (I hope), the problem is a minor but quite bothersome one. If the cap comes off the nipple and jams the cylinder, all you have to do is to pick the cap out which will free up the cylinder or remove the cylinder and dump out the loose cap.
Since #10 caps are readily available, you are better off using them if they are the ones specified by the owner’s manual.
