I got my new nipples form track of the wolf
i needed to turn them down a bit to get CCI#11 to fit on them , and fire the first time
i first tried chucking one in the drill like suggested here , not much there to get a hold of
i went down to the hardware store to see what i could find they had the perfect thing almost , they had 1 1/2 inch long threaded hex stock for joining lengths of threaded rod but only in 1/4-20 thread
i found a nut in 6mm-1 that fit the nipple well and was much easier to chuck up in the drill with the nipple in it
a little time with a file and repeated testing and i now have 2 nipples that fire a CCI #11 every time on the first hit
i had been thinking , with sizing nipples and turning the bur that sometimes forms on them that a handy tool to make would be some hex stock with a 1/4-28 thread in one end and a 6mm-1 in the other that was about 1.5 inches long that would chuck up strait and easily every time
for now i have a nut for each size in my kit.
