I think that is the one I've worn out.  The one I have coming would be 
about 125mm (5") in diameter, with an adapter plate.

Their collet chucks look like a decent deal though, and that is something 
that Chris doesn't stock.  So I'll keep that in mind if I ever go into 
production with my #209 nipple for my muzzle loading BP rifle.
