| I want to get a rifle rest, but debating what to fill it with. Maybe airsoft pellets or rice? Any thoughts? |

I've been looking for a supply of the plastic pellets that are roughly 'jellybean' sized. |

I used the following to make my own-
Walnut tumbling media Plastic grocery bag Black sock Zip ties Put the plastic grocery bag in the sock first. Fill the grocery bag with the walnut media until it's as full as you like. Tie off the grocery bag and zip tie the open end of the sock. Now fold the remainder of the sock over onto itself and zip tie again. *I used the grocery bag to help keep the media from working it's way out of the sock. The plastic doesn't make noise when it's filled and in the sock. |

For my BULL'S Bag X7, I used sand. It seemed the most stable; to hell with the weight.
Honestly, Cat Littter sounded best, but once it is wet, I was told it was ruined. I liked the stability and frequency absorption of the sugar sand, although it does weigh about 35 pounds when full. I'll wheel it to the range for the ability to sight in easier; this, to me is the easiest way to set up my rifles; AR and others, as it sticks like glue and I can do it all alone. Cheers. |
