Consider yourself fortunate as mine doesn't even come up that far but then again, mine is a .50. For as often as I shoot mine, I can live with it ....
Are you using the standard nipple used in the TC Hawkens or the short nipples used in the New Englanders. They are both 1/4 X 28 but the short nipple is about .54" overall length, about the same as an empty .22LR case and the long or standard nipple is about 1/10 inch longer.
