Word of caution. Plastic A40s make great skin plugs, but the wire in old A40's tends to corrode. Twice in the last several years I have cast away my plug and found 1" of the through wire still attached to my snap. Both plugs were probably 15-20 years old. They are still the gold standard for skin plugs (if you can cast 4-4.5 oz), but don't use one that is too ancient.
