I use the plug kit from cerakote. The plug kit comes in many sizes to fit many bore and chamber sizes. You can cut the tapered plugs in half to fit holes that are too shallow or to get a tight fit. The plugs are heat resistant and can be used over and over. I use a small piece of heat tape from Brownelles which I stick over the gas block whole. The tape is some of the toughest tape I have used and can recommend it completely. I blasted right over the tape and it stuck and held together like no other tape I have used. Great stuff. Masking tape or other common tape would be blasted off instantly in my blasting cabinet.
