See bore slugging in the FAQs, I use egg sinkers, they work well and are sold anywhere fishing tackle is available, just make sure they're lead,   not the non-toxic type.

Do you mean slug some barrels?
Go to a sporting goods store and buy some lead sinkers.

No no Pete, we swig   ::)  not swag!  ;D

Although sometimes we swig till we swagger...  or is it stagger...  :-\

Not lead slugs of course, bad for the liver...   :P
