: Any ideas here?
: I imagine it's about guns: getting the lead out being firing fast. It crosses my mind it could be about ballest, but lead would be damn expensive ballest.

: Anyone care to weigh in?

"weigh in" very clever.

I still fondly remember my football (American) coach bellowing, as I struggled to run the length of the field in full gear at top speed, "Miller, get the lead out of your jock!" He was gently encouraging me to stop malingering and realize my full potential, speedwise.
