Slug Your Barrel Kit
DO YOU KNOW THE ACTUAL GROOVE DIAMETER OF YOUR BARREL?
Printed by permission, Lyman Products
X = bore diameter
Y = the actual groove diameter
No? Then read on!!
Experiencing leading or inaccuracy with cast lead bullets are reasons to "slug" a gun barrel to determine the actual groove diameter. Once this actual groove diameter is known, then you can use cast lead bullets that conform closely to this dimension.
This kit was designed to help you determine the ACTUAL GROOVE DIAMETER of your gun barrel.
The Kit Contains
45

1
Soft Lead Plugs
5" Hardwood Pins
Pair of Forceps
in 9 different diameters, enough to slug 5 barrels.
to drive slugs through the barrel without damaging the bore.
for easy removal of slugs from the tray.
In addition to the kit, you will need a small hammer to tap the slug through the barrel, some high quality gun grease, and a micrometer or caliper to measure the slug.
