Description

6x.75mm Lyman AMPCO Nipple. Due to various sizes it is up to the customer to determine the correct nipple for their firearm.

Please be sure you are ordering the correct nipple.TRESO black powder muzzleloading nipples are made from Ampco, a tough alloy with a tensile strength of 118,000 psi, which istougher than most steels used in muzzleloading barrels. This material provides more resistance to repeated blows from thehammer, and the high thermal conductivity of Ampco alloy affects a faster heat dissipation. This dissipation reduces erosionof the small base hole and assures a longer lasting nipple. All nipples have a small base hole (.028″) to greatly reduce theamount of escaping powder gases. Many muzzle loading experts feel an added benefit of the small base hole is the hot gasesfrom the percussion cap are more concentrated and uniformly directed against the powder chamber. It is up to the customer toselect the correct nipple.
