Howdy, it's Davem again from the other thread. From what you said about the bolt I am assuming you have an in-line. If so and if 209 primers are legal in your state- get a breech plug for them if available. The second choice is the musket caps. If you must use the #11 nipple, there are some nipples designed to provide a hotter flame to the charge. Also, it isn't that uncommon for a nipple to get beat up after a while and require replacement. If those Remington caps were working for you then stick with them. The #11 should be okay if you are using real black powder. If you are using Pyrodex, etc- then I'd go with the musket cap or the 209.
