I will, thanks Gary!
I'm not a video star, like brushhippie but, I have two "goonerized" guns. One is a Colt 2nd Generation 1851 C Series and the other is an Uberti Whitneyville Dragoon.thanks cooldill well I was gonna wait to see if the nipples work out before I decide to have my 1858 gonnerized, so if you would keep me posted as I am interested in having mine tuned up but wanna see how yours works out!
I think they are bottoming out... hard to tell. Even when pushing with significant force with my dowel, the caps still weren't going off. At least half required a second hit of the hammer. None needed three hits.
If mine proves reliable with the new spring I'll mail you mine. It is quite light.my spring is a little heavy in mine and I wonder how I could lightin mine up just a little?
Maybe it's my Remington #10s? All I know is that I was experiencing about a 50% misfire rate even after seating them very firmly with a dowel rod. Hopefully these trick nipples help out with the ignition problems. I think I'll still through the heavier spring in there just to make sure they are getting whacked hard.Cooldill, your spring is too light to be used in a stock revolver. There's way too much other stuff to do to make it work.
I still don't understand why it worked for me (with CCI #11s) but not you. That's the hardest cap that I know of, that's why I use them.
