Spencer .56-50 blanks have become cheap to shoot at around 22 cents each if you make your own. That is only about $22 per 100, now that is cheap. I love doing research and development and I knew that I could come up with something better than the plastic cases out there and a lot cheaper than paying $1.00 or more per blank. Check out the links below if you are interested in shooting you Spencer .56-50. I have shot over 2000 of these blanks at several reenactments including Selma this past year. They function almost flawlessly. Several others have tried these with great success. A person could also buy these ready made from Todd Koster at 75 cents each. I am not interested in making and selling any, my love is the R & D, now it is on to the next project.
