I picked up 900 of these #11 percussion caps at an estate sale a couple weeks back for a few bucks. They shoot well and seem to be just as hot as CCI Magnum caps. They are old, and Italian I think. They go bang and shoot well in my muzzleloaders, I’ve just never seen them. I use RWS 1075+ caps religiously but couldn’t pass these up for $7. Thought someone here may have some knowledge of them. Thanks.
 
I do believe they are from the 80's. Italian made.
 
Thanks, I figure they’ll make good range caps if nothing else. The first dozen or so of them I’ve shot fired consistently with no misfires, or hang fires. I’ve got a .36 cal TC Seneca rifle I’ll try them in for hunting. I don’t go out in bad weather for squirrels or rabbit so they should do fine. If not, they’ll be range caps.
