The nipple already in the rifle may have a too small flash hole for reliability.
Yes!!!!!!
Over a year ago the hammer on the .58 caliber TC New Englander began half cocking when fired. After cleaning the rifle i installed someones new whiz bang nipple and put the rifle away. Recently took the rifle to the range, nothing but misfires and hang fires.
The flash hole in that nipple was tiny. Tossed that nipple and installed a new TC nipple, now the rifle fires every time.
