[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 1052860, member: 2011"] Been messing with this for several years. Started out with the BB size poly balls. Were better than the teeny weeny poly stuff that leaked out easily and stuck to every thing they touched. As you said sand is too heavy. Here's what I now use and recommend. Go to the pet store and get some small animal bedding. The stuff made of dried corn cob. I picked up some to mess with. I'm always messing..... Soaked it in water over night. Spread out on a paper plate it dried out sufficiently to be acceptable for use in canvas/denim rear bag. Have been using it over since. I'm more than pleased. I'm also in a situation where I can't have a bipod attached to the 375 Allen Magnum to be under the 16 pound idaho big game weight limit. I used the petrified corn cob stuff and built a very large bag for the front end. It's 10" in diameter and 12" long. It is a great replacement for the bipod. It's a bit heavy and so is the rifle at 15.94 pounds. The pack donkey is the one that will carry the stuff so I'm 'good'. HTH. [/QUOTE]
