[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 12405, member: 3"] Len (Don't you hate if when I start like that.) How about not having a round chambered, mag loaded but no round in the chamber. Get some of those dental cotton plugs (like Sinclair sells for cleaning an action) and thread a piece of Pink Andy or other heavy fishing line through it... make a big knot. Have the line long enough to extend the full length of the barrel. Pre load the chamber with the cotton plug and have the line hanging out the end of the barrel. Tape the barrel as folks suggested to hold the line in place and keep the barrel relatively dry. When you're doing your setup, pull the cotton plug through the barrel to remove it, check the barrel clear (**** cotton), chamber and fire the round. You may be able to use two cotton plugs in that big 7mm Magnum Thingy you shoot. P. S. If the string breaks or this doesn't work I will state I never suggested it! [/QUOTE]
