Then as now, testosterone courses through our bodies and there have been times in the past when a wee swedge has been on the cards.
"Seems kinder uneighbourly to let 'em swedge off like this," Salters suggested, feeling in his pockets.— Captains Courageous
Among other subjects discussed are the following: -- The quantity of twist requisite in a rifle barrel -- the gaining twist, as opposed to Mr. Greener, and the decreasing twist -- the size of ball best suited to different distances -- the swedge, by which a ball, being cast rather larger than requisite, is compressed into a more solid mass -- the powder to use, decreasing in size of the grain in proportion to the diminishing length of barrel -- the loading muzzle, by which the lips of the grooves are preserved as sharp as a razor, &c.— Lands of the Slave and the Free Cuba, the United States, and Canada
