I'm a Cap Gun Shooter. A serious Cap Gun Shooter. I DO NOT believe nor indorse "Make-Do" for Caps. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. At least be wearing Safety Glasses when your crimping caps. They are, after all, some explosive and exploding into your face wouldn't be . . . "FUN"
There is also some Rube over a another forum suggesting crimping CCI Caps to work beyond their intended duty. Basically because he's too cheap to do it right. Care should be taken.
I agree With Herr Coffin!
it is not that hard to buy or modify your Percussion Cones ( ie nipples) to exactly fit your Percussion Caps.
find the right Cones, and you are there.
If one must modify their Cones, A good caliper, an electric drill and a fine swiss file are all that is needed.
The method has been posted elsewhere, and our prior member Mako had posted detailed images and instructions.
I will try to go find where those posts are hiding...
