I found a nipple in my T.C. parts stash. It is stainless and measures .544 from base to tip. The thread is the same as my Ithaka Hawkin but is quite a bit shorter? One of you fellows will know what it fits , I sure don't?
 
Can you provide the actual thread and the length of the threaded portion from the seat to the end? That might help and Track of the Wolf has an extensive listing of nipples giving their dimensions.

It miked out exactly .2" and has 4 threads. I am going to get my thread gauge and see what the pitch of the threads happens to be. I don't know why but I never notice nipples being different lengths? I haven't worked on many M.L. rifles and I don't recall ever working on any thing envolving Nipples?
