Slinging beach pebbles off the Yorkshire coast

I'll knock up a shorter sling soon. Distance is great, but accuracy is much more impressive!
The beach is covered with lovely chalk pebbles, round and bullet shaped, plus many other types of stone pebbles, sand-stones, shales, granites, ironstone ... basically the whole gamut (I did geology in college...).
Flint is never in regular aerodynamic shapes, so I pass (its chalk cliff though, so there's heaps of it kicking around - and lots of neolithic and bronze age flint tools in the fields on the cliff tops, last year I picked up two flint arrowheads!).
