Default Paper capacitor recap opinions?

I am in the process of recapping one of my receivers that uses many 0.05 MFD
paper caps. Since 0.05s are not READILY available, I am split equally on the
following:

1. Do I recap using the more readily available 0.047
MFD caps even though they are of less capacity
than the original? OR...



I agree... There is absolutely no reason not to use .047's.
