My RepRapPro Ormerod uses a one-piece stainless steel nozzle/heatbreak. It works very well and has never jammed.

I use the Prometheus as well. Performs very well. Nozzles are a bit pricey at $25.00 but entire hotend is only $75.00.

I'm using an e3d hardened steel nozzle and I've not noticed any difference compared to the standard nozzles.
