Here's a pic of the "weather cap" I made for my Ultra Mag.
It's a pvc coupling that measures 1 1/4" inside, cut lengthwise and to the right length to fit over the breech and nipple area. I glued (GOOP - if you haven't discovered Goop yet, it's great!) a piece of inner tube to the underside of the coupling, then Gooped a piece of web material to wrap around. Add a couple of Velcro dots to fasten - and voila! I figure I will only use it on days when it's raining or snowing, or when the snow is heavy on the pines I walk through - but it will keep any heavy moisture away from the nipple.
BTW - if you're shopping for GOOP, don't worry about whether it's Marine, Plumber's, Home, or whatever - it's all the same.
