Percussion caps into capper question

[Possum Skinner, SASS#60697]

I recently bought a Polish capper and when I went to fill it, I realized I knew of no easy way to put caps in with correct side up.  Is there an easy, quick way to do that?  Or do I just have to manually flip them as I fill it?

Thank you,

In my Tedd Cash capper I just dump them in and swirl/shake  them around for a few seconds.  Most of them flip over on their own.  I assume the caps would behave the same in a Polish device.

2:30 to 3:00 minutes

I also use the Ted Cash capper and when a few don't turn over I usually have a toothpick handy to help with that.

I use my nipple prick to flip the few stubborn caps that don't right themselves.

Yep.  Shaking it works pretty good!  Thank you, gentlemen.

I got the straight line capper, is this any good. I have problems with it.

I have had 2 straight line cappers and both wound up being targets.  They should work fine for everything but Remington #10s. Because #10s are a taller than other caps sooner or later one becomes stuck inside the capper. Prying a live cap out of  an inline capper just didn't seem smart to me.

No.  Just getting ready to start shooting my ROAs some to stretch my cache of SPPs.

I use a Ted Nash straight capper. They work for 1858 Remingtons and Remington # 10 caps with no issues. Not pertinent to the OP just I don't like handling the snail or Polish cappers.
