I shot a cap again.

This time i found some old style roll caps. The plastic caps aren't worth the time messing with them, neither are the roll caps. You can't hear the bang because the impact and noise from the gun overpowers it. Sometimes I can see a spark downrange. Don't bother with this. Another thing that doesn't work is the led light sytem from home depot for the Chrony chronograph. See you tube for that. Two didn't work for indoor use like they said so I went back & got 2 more. It still don't work. I bought the light system Chrony sells us & it kinda sorta works.

Have you tried putting a few caps together? I wonder if that would make a difference?

I don't have a chrony yet so I'm not familiar with the need for lights. I asume you're referring to this vid? [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMW8h-UPuww#]Chrony?Inexpensive Alternate Lights for Indoor Low Light Shooting?F1 Chronograph[/url]

What does work well for down range excitement is finding some of the original strike-anywhere kitchen matches, those with the sulfur tip on the head.

I have shot the wooden matches,never had one to light but I could smell the sulfur after hitting one on the point.

Thanks for the tip on putting 2 caps together. The wooden strike anywhere matches sounds about right to me. Don't work either. I used to shoot those out of the daisy bb guns & they would llight up when they hit the telephone pole or whatever. I think I will stick to suspending glass bottles over a garbage can for big fun. I may try shooting a depleted shotgun hull filled with flour someday but I don't see how I can beat the ol' glass shattering. The wife likes it too. How can you beat that?
