    Wow, tough crowd this morning.

    I use a wooden dowel, leave a tiny bit of wiggle room.

    Wood works but absorbs water.

    There are plastic ones that are better, they sell them through Cabelas and they are cheap, they normally take a 5rd mag and turn it into a 2rd mag but plastic dowl cut to size is good too, plastic is better for water.

    Look in your closet, do you have a thick plastic coat hanger, they make great plugs...

    I have pulled wooden plugs out of shotguns that were over 100 years old and have never found one with any kind of water damage.keep hearing about it but have yet to see it .wood still seems to be the most popular material for a shotgun plug. If you are worried about water give it y coat of water sealer.make sure to cut your plug so you can only fit two of the longest shells your gun can fire.like a 3.5 inch shotgun. I can fit three short shells in it but only two of the 3.5 inch shells. Dutch

    Actually there are some dumb questions.
    I worked with an RCMP one morning doing MBCA. He asked one hunter if his shotgun was plugged. It was a side x side.
    On another day that same officer asked a hunter why he didn't leave a leaf on his grouse. (Something lost in the translation I suppose)
