There are nozzles with 3 jaws and some with 4 jaws. I too have had the problem of squirting out at the nipple with even a tested clear nipple. Recently bought a (more expensive) nozzle end with 4 jaws and it worked a lot better, but just would not go onto a new nipple I had just fitted (!/4 UNF on my Scimitar) so had to find another 1/4 UNF in spares box that it would fit on. Used micrometer to compare diameter, it was that close.
I still have bad feelings at having to leaver gun off sideways but it seems only way to get it off as obviously pulling strait is what happens when you pull leaver and grease goes in under pressure and should get locked so no side leakage round ball.
Mick Hanna.....modern cartridge gun.....you just put the cartridge of grease into outer shell and screw cap back on....theoretically no mess!
