    nipple blew out!

    That happened to my underhammer a while back. I ended up using a .010 oversize thread nipple and has worked fine ever since. Went with .010 cause .005 did not feel like enough.

    How a percussion revolver works?

    Just to be accurate, not picky....But the nipple threads into the chamber..its not all one piece. Nice work by the way.

    Caps for H&A underhammer?

    Walruskid,.....I am curious about your spacer. does it just rest beneath the nipple, or is it welded? my original nipple stripped and blew out last year and now i use a 1/4x28 .10 oversize that does protrude into the barrel. it does shoot fine but i do remove the nipple to clean. just curios...

    OK you underhammer experts.

    I have the same rifle and the same blowout happened to me. The gunsmith I took it to put in a 1\4x28 .10 oversize nipple, as opposed to 1\4x32,my threads were also gone. It has been fine ever since. FYI...60 grains Pyrodex FFG, nice tight groups!

    Cover Scent Soap

    I have read that deer often smell smoke in the woods, as long as no heat is felt they are not alarmed

    Underhammer nipple blowout!

    Barrel wall thickness is thick, but where the nipple is threaded it is recessed into the barrel, thus giving only about 1/8 inch material to thread into.

    Underhammer nipple blowout!

    The nipple of my .45 cal. H&A underhammer blew out, stripped out when I pulled the trigger. Can I repair this, oversize nipple or other repair, or is my barrel just shot? Thanks
