Anyone looked at putting a dot of 309 filler metal on the bottoms of nipples with big holes and then redrilling the tiny holes?

Not me. Just replace it.
I got a gun the other day that had the nipple drilled out quite a bit, my take is a little drilling is OK, if the blowback cocks your hammer, it is definitely time for a new nipple. I was shooting light charges in the gun but changed the nipple out with a new one anyway.
