So, the CCI and Remington No. 11 caps are the same diameter on average, although the variance in size is greater for the Remingtons. That is a surprise, as I had the impression from range reports that the Remingtons were a bit smaller in diameter; they seem to fit where CCI No. 11's were too large and CCI No. 10's were too small.
I thought Remingtons were smaller also. My 58 has #11 nipples and CCI fits best. Remingtons are a tight fit and need more pressure to fully seat. RWS are tightest of all and need a lot of pressure to fully seat. My 60 Colt takes #10 and all I can find are Remington and they fit fine, just like the CCI's do on my 58.
