Capper advice Please.

So what is the best capper for a 58 remmie. I bought one of the brass ones that looks rather like a snail, no go the cut in the cyl. is slightly narrower than the capper. I thought about opening up that cut a little, thought better of it, don't want a chain fire from that end.

Don't care about 'traditional' look, just something that makes it quick and easy, and pref. holds a bunch of caps.

If any of you remember my trials and tribulations getting this gun (sucky etailer) I did finally get it and put about 30 rounds through it. Grouped very well with about 30 grns. of black, wonder wad, and a .454 ball. Only thing I noticed was the back of the trigger guard is kinda hard one your fingers with 40 grns. powder, lots of smoke and fire tho. It appears 40 is about max. proly get 45-50 w/o a wad and grease instead. Seems like 40 is plenty anyway. Sweet revolver!
