RE: T/C Scout Conical loads
My origional nipple has more than 1000 shots though it and it keeps on ticking. I would just hunt around for another spare. Think about it unless it gets peened over the top isn't what will get burnt out it is the little cone off of the barrel.
Now that I picked up another Scout and was told today that collector value is rising I am going to buy at least a couple more spares to make sure my shooting value and guns value do not suffer.
Our wooden stocked Scouts were among the last ones made on sight at T/C they farmed out stock making after the fire.
