In old Contenders and Late (stock, Non-modified) G2. But I’ve not shot the military spec caps or tried them on a chassis with a lighter hammer spring.

I’m not sure about the story of thicker or harder cups. I’m a little skeptical. I figure they just use brass, unplated cups, and bland packaging to cut costs. But I’d not really try any rifle caps in a revolver. I have before myself though, (I actually do a lot of goofy things you probably shouldn’t) some worked some didn’t.

        we don' t really try hard to get the caps as black powder is - Gary Reeder, 2021-12-02, 16:31
        Black powder is actually illegal there? (nm) - Keith H., 2021-12-02, 21:28
        yep, has been for over 30 years. Due to forest fire - gary reeder, 2021-12-02, 22:40
- Harder cup to resist full-auto slamfire. (nm) - Sooner, 2021-12-02, 11:48
  - I’ve read that too. Rifle or SS should have no problems (nm) - WB, 2021-12-02, 14:36
    - by SS I assume you mean the single shot? - Gary Reeder, 2021-12-02, 15:44
