I have a Uberti 1858 remington and a Pietta 1851 navy, both take No. 11 caps..
the only caps that I have ever found is the CCI No. 11 magnum and in order to ensure a proper fit, I have to squeeze the cap so slightly to make sure it stays on when the revolver is being fired. ( The cones are not worn)
Today I purchased a box of caps in a gun shop and when I placed them on the cones, they fit perfectly and no alterations were made.
the cap box is plastic with a orange lable , with the following written on it: AMORCESS DE CHASSE , CANNELEES. In the middle of the cover is a crossed set of rifles over an infantry bugle. On the end of each cap is a capital W
Can anyone help with the identification of these caps and then can anyone offer a solution about the CCI caps having to squeezed.
Thansk in advance for the help
