I use the Sharpshooter kit. Can order either #10 - #11 and the priming compound. Smells like toy caps when it goes off and is a bit dirty. Completely worth it though in the long run should you ever end up with no caps.

I bought the sharpshooter kit but have yet to use it...kinda my OH CRAP set up if I ever run out of caps. What material are you using for the cap? I've read a bunch of different options for the cap body.
