Recently acquired a Model 1861 by Schubarth in rough but restorable to firing condition. As usual ( at least for me) the nipple is beat up and looks to be rusted in. The couple I have had to remove in like condition in the past have been tough. I hate having to drill them out. Glad to hear advice on what works from the many others who have had to remove rusted in nipples in the past. I have the barrel upside down right now with penetrate hoping this will help.
