Making Musket Caps

Got tired of not finding Musket caps , so I made my own forming tool and loaded my own primer.They worked great in my.58 Wesson rifle.

Nice 👍🏻. I like when they spilled. You said see primer powder doesn’t fall out. Lol. Priceless.
That’s what you want keep primer in cap. You should of showed them though. Lol. Good video

working mine out with hard wood, copper sheet, and a drill bit pusher, Love the press idea!
I used an almost empty clear nail polish bottle filled with acetone about 5:1 to solution and bind my compound, looks to work in testing, no live fire yet?
Keep your smoke trains SMOKING!

What diameter did you bore out the cap maker to?

How did you modify the #11 cap maker to make musket caps?
