Ok, here is my question which is somewhat related: which nipples can be used to replace the factory ones on a Pedersoli Kodiak? I know that the threads are 1/4-28, but the nipples that came on the rifle seem unusually long.

The left hand nipple on my Kodiak came with the cone snapped off. I figure that this is a good opportunity to replace the nipples with a superior design, but when the hammer is down on the right side, the neck of the hammer is almost against the rear of the fence.

If even slightly shorter nipples were used, it seems that the face of the hammer wouldn't make it all the way down to the top of the cone.

Which nipples have worked for you guys? I'd rather not start grinding the back of the fences, or the front of the hammer neck on my $1000 rifle if at all possible.
