musket nipple on tc hawken

[William Lincoln]

Keep both nipples. Use whatever caps you can find. The future supply might remain
unstable and you can use what you find.

I need a nipple wrench that fits the TC musket nipple??!!! Where can I find one??

I would get a set of ignition open end wrenches. One of those should fit. A standard musket nipple wrench should fit. You don't need a T/C branded tool.

This is Track of the Wolf's recommended tool;

TOTW, October Country, Possibles Shop, Gun Works Muzzleloading Emporium, & about a dozen other shops on-line. My musket nipples are all 1/4" square nut.

This one is not square, hence my question. I have square wrenches. The TC nipple is rounded on 2 sides. But I did find one.

Lot of good response with spot on advice. They will work. But do order yourself a couple Hot Shot style nipples and caps to change to when the musket ones are used up or you decided they are not needed.
