Default Centuri SST shuttle

So I purchased an incomplete Centuri Sst. It is missing the nose cone for the booster.
Everything I found online says it's is a Pnc-10
I cant find any thing that matches up to that number.
Semroc has dicontinued their clone so can't even check that.
Any ideas what nose cone is the closest.?

Centuri ST-10 tubing is the body tube, I believe. Therefore the BC-10 nose cones from eRockets/Semroc would fit. They have lots of nose cones in this size and numerous long, pointy ones. I was surprised that I could not find the instruction sheet, since that would give the exact Semroc part number. You certainly can order the right cone, it will just be balsa.

According to Semroc's insert for the SST Shuttle x-Kit, the correct nose is the Semroc BC-1050. You will also need a couple of washers for nose weight and a screw eye.

Great
Thanks for the help.
I was always going to buy the clone and kept putting it off figuring they would always have it now I see is discontinued. luckily I found A partially built original think I can save
