DB>VH>John -- I did a quick check.  Graff, in Mexico, Missouri (order number
DB>VH>1-800-531-2666) stocks CB caps, at about $1.80 per 50 (Winchester and
DB>VH>CCI.)  They also sell the Speer practice ammo -- plastic (reloadable)
DB>VH>cases and bullets for about $4.75 for 50.
DB>VH>If you have a .357 or .38 special, the plastic ammo would be a good
DB>VH>choice.  This is reloadable -- you fill a box with newspaper and use
DB>VH>that for a backstop, and you can recover and re-use the bullets.
DB>        I have used the plastic cases for years, the best back stop I
DB>        have found is to hang an old towel from a rod -- stops the
DB>        plastic bullets just fine and with no mess.
I used these years ago -- at the time, there were three of us Infantry
lieutenants sharing a house.  One of my room mates was not my favorite
guy.  I wondered what would happen if I shot him in the butt, and the
other room mate suggested a test shot at a plasticized room divider.
He looked at the hole in the divider and said "Well, ol' #$%#head's sure
lucky we tested this thing first."
