The number 10 caps have a longer skirt than the number 11’s. Therefore, they have more surface area to fit onto the tapered nipples. The number 10 has a height of .066″ The number 11 has a height of .047″ That’s the basic difference.

The remington number 10 caps work well with my Uberti percussion revolvers, while my Pietta revolvers work well with CCI number 11 caps. However, I recommend trying a tin of several brands and sizes of cap before purchasing a substantial quantity.

My experience is my Piettas use 10s, and my Ubertis use 11s. I pinch the 11s just a bit if they need to be snugged up. Pro tip: use a wood dowel or pencil eraser to push the caps on. They probably will never go off while putting them on, but if one ever does your thumb will never be the same.

Remington No. 10 Caps ended up fitting my original Remington .44 perfectly. They also fit both of my Cimmaron Colt 1860s perfectly. So, I am very happy with this, since finding the right Cap makes a world of difference from Caps which are too loose or too tight.
