Default tc hot shot nipples

I been using the tc hot shot nipples with my usak, had them on hand when I got my new englander. just read on another sight about problems with them. I am going to order some spit fires here in a couple of weeks.

Has anyone had problems with those nipples?

Default RE: tc hot shot nipples

Spitfire, hot shot, Uncle Mike's, they are all the same thing basically. As for problems with a Hot Shot Nipple, they are all that I use and I have never had any problems with them. In fact as soon as a rifle comes into my house, if it does not have a Hot Shot nipple it does so immediately..

Never had an issue with the spitfires. I like the Hollow base in them. Very good nipples.

just go to the cabelas website and they'll show the spitfire. 2 different styles, One of them being the Hollow Based Spitfire.

sorry confussed just went 15 mins for nothing. they said they called and said I did not need to come for an interview. they where on a hiring freeze.

last time I check cabelas they where on back order. I have seen (forgot who puts it out) in hollow based musket that they call a magnum musket nipple.
