Would you trust these threads?

I had the same thing happen to me with a TC White Mountain Carbine that I bought off a guy several years back. Before shooting it, I replaced the nipple with a brand new 1/4 x 28 Tres Ampco nipple. When I shot for the first time the nipple flew back thru my hair missing my scalp.(thank God) The hammer flew back denting my stock as well.
I ordered a .255 tap and a .260 tap from TOW. I also ordered some new .260 nipples. I used the .255 tap first, followed up with the .260 tap. The new .260 nipples fit great and my WMC shoots great.

This is encouraging to hear. And likely the path I will take. Thank you for sharing your experience!
