Wise Ones. I just bought an older Uberti .36 cal Remington. I capped the gun with the intention of shooting it. #10 caps, #11 were loose. Anyway, only a few caps fired the first time around. Most went off the second time. I throughly cleaned the gun but got the same issues with firing off caps. I can't find anything overtly wrong, so I ordered new nipples. While waiting for those to arrive, is there anything to do to get the gun shooting? I had thought about trying to turn the nipples in the drill press in an attempt to true up the cone part. I am thinking these are the org nipples and over the years they have been battered out of shape (ever so slightly)so that the cap does not seat all the way. Any other thoughts?
Thanks Moose.
