I have a blue one too. I use #11 cci caps on the ruger nipples. The 10's are too tight! I just bought some tresco nipples for spares but I don't know what caps they take yet. I've put 40 grains of 777 fffg just to try and she did kick with that load. 30 grains gives me the best accuracy with either Hornady or speer balls. I just bought two more pietta's from cabelas that haven't come in yet I just couldn't resist their sale prices. So now I'll be up to 4 cap & ball revolvers. Who said they aren't addictive??
