Why SS?
The bronze alloy nipples by Treso and others last almost indefinitely and are the standard for most ml shooters.
I particularly like the 'hot shot' style for C&B pistols because they make removal of the spent cap effortless.

They work well on my 1860 Army. They are on sale at Cabela's right now.

The reason for SS is just corrosion resistance. Anybody got a link????
P.S. Thanks for the responses!!!!!

Shouldn't have a problem with blued if you keep them clean. Pick your flavor.
