It's pretty difficult to accelerate hundreds of tons (or even a lot less than that) of stuff out of the gravity well of the Sun. Let's start by terrorising things a bit closer to home (the moon, Mars)

A bootstrap station that can turn asteroids or space dust into probes sounds like a solution for that.
