Where to find .69 cartridge tubes?

[Maillemaker]

Hi all,

I checked Lodgewood and S&S and they don't list them.

Who carries tubes for .69 cartridges? I like the red rubber ones I think I got from Lodgewood before. They are slightly larger than the black rubber ones I have and much easier to stuff the ball into. We have a new shooter on our team that needs tubes.

Couple of years ago Glenn Kaye of the 73rd NY had some made up. Doubt he has any but might provide a lead

Hey Steve,

I have several bags of the black .69 cal.
tubes left from our business, Miami Valley Sutler. $10.00 per 50 ea.
I still use them.

Hey Mike,

Thanks, I prefer the red ones as the black ones are really tight (at least mine are). I have to push my balls into the tubes with a sheet of wax paper or it rips off the Alox coating. The red ones are slightly bigger and much easier to push the balls into/out.

You could contact cap plugs with your requirements and see if they have a cap plug in the diameter you require. The last time I ordered from them I had to order 1000, but sold off all I had a little over my cost to pay for shipping.
