I have been trying to play a solo for holy wars and have come up dumb founded

first off I know dave mustaine is one of the greats, but I need to know how he does somethings

first thing is towards the end of the second solo he starts to play something like this

--------------------------------------------------|
--21p19p16----21p19p16----21p19p16----21p19p16----|
----------------16----------------16---------------16----------------16|
--------------------------------------------------|
--------------------------------------------------|
--------------------------------------------------|

that is just part of the tab, it goes up slower from about 17p15p12 but he gets faster in this part and im wondering how he does that finger wise
does he put his index finger on the 16th fret of the G and B string and use the others two pulloff the 21 to 19? or is there some other way?

the next thing is sweeping, theres a small sweeping solo in the song and i cant sweep for my life, i can sweep a chord, but i cant solo sweep because you've got to mute every note afterwards, when i do it it sounds like ****...is there any special technique to sweeping?

thanks a lot!
