I believe the nock taper is 11 degrees.  At least that's what T.J Conrads says in his Traditional Bowhunters Handbook.  But not a problem unless you make your own tapering jigs because all commercial jigs and components have the 11 degree taper.

Bernie is correct here.
The nock taper is 11.5° (+/- 0.25°) per AMO-Standard.
