Close, but... no.  The tip diameter on that one is larger than what  
I'm looking for and the angle cut on the end of the tip is much  
shallower than what I'm looking for.

It's beginning to look like they simply stopped making the version PIM  
carries.  Makes me wonder if PIM has some stashed or got OBX to only  
supply to them.
