Went shooting my 1860 replica Colt this morning and had a major problem with the Remington caps failing to ignite. Thankfully I had some CCI caps and they all fired like they are supposed to.
It was a brand new tin of 100, while checking the caps I really don't see any priming solution in them. The CCI have a bright yellow solution in them, these just look like a little dimple in the base of the cup.
Any ideas in regards to this dilemma? I had about half of the caps go off, and all the CCI caps fired. Note this is the first time I've used Remington percussion caps in any of my cap and ball revovers.
