1858 Nipple removal

[CaptainKirk]

Good to hear you solved your problem! The anti-seize should prevent this from happening again. Depending on what type A/S you used (copper or silver) you may want to fire a cap on each nipple before firing again; the silver A/S flows rather easily and can migrate down the threads and actually plug the hole on the powder side of the nipple! Copper A/S is generally more "pastey" and tends to stay put better. In any case, application after each shooting will prevent this from happening again. Good shooting!
