If you don't get FTF with caps installed with just mere thumb pressure and you have to use a capper then you haven't found the right cap/nipple combination. I would suggest trying a different brand of caps or a different size within the brand you are using. And, Treso nipples go a long way to eliminate the problems some of y'all are experiencing.
The OP says he's thinking about getting a capper. My response is that the capper may fix his problem if he uses #10 caps and presses firmly. If this works for him (as it does for me), buying Treso nipples is unnecessary. If the OP would rather not use a capper, then perhaps Treso nipples is the way to go, but a set of Treso nipples will cost him more than a brass capper. Also, he can't just go to Walmart, Gander Mtn, Bass Pro, or other local store and get Treso nipples. Most likely he can get a good brass capper locally.
