Heavy Sand
Want to upgrade my rear bag, but plan to do it right. Sinclair is still out of stock on heavy sand. Any other sources?

I had never heard of heavy sand, so i did a little googling and found this. Should give you some other options.

Re: Heavy Sand
Just take a ride up Hwy 61 and at every junction box the phone company has is still sandbagged about 5ft high from the flood water, hop out grab a sandbag and you got sand for free.

Re: Heavy Sand
Also, masonary sand is fine, the finer the sand the less air you have in the bag making it heavy.

Re: Heavy Sand
If someone had told me a year ago that I would spend $45 for a 15 lb. bucket of sand, I would have laughed them out of the room, but...I just did. Shipping is a killer on this stuff, but it IS heavy. Put it in a new bag and you really have to try to move it. Considering it will last virtually forever I guess it will be alright. I just have to keep shooting for 20 more years to amortize the cost.
