Snap Caps for Doubles

[Surgeon1]

My snap caps are just worn out. Can't seem to find snapcaps for 500 Nitro base (470NE, 500NE, 450 3-1/4, etc) Also need for 450-400 and 375 Flange (9.3x74).
I would appreciate any help.

Lothar Walther- so much better than the azoom caps I’ve had before.

If you got some friends with a reloading press just have them make you a dummy round with some hot glue in the primer pocket

You can do it, but it's inferior to the spring loaded primers on the Lothar Walther ones.

FYI there is a reason why doubles used to come with a piece of hardwood or horn to drop the firing pins against, I've used a piece of horn before the the dents left are substantial; that hot glue or rubber will not last long or offer the same cushion as the true spring loaded snap caps.

The Lothar website has a very poor picture, but I assure you they are the same.
