Maybe you guys have seen this, maybe you have not.

I don't know how it compares to lead shot. Anybody here use this stuff before?

Looks real close to black beauty blasting material that menards sells for less than $10 a 50 pound bag.

Yikes. It would cost more for the filler then it cost for my stands.

You try it out and let us know, I will stick with my $3 play sand.

LMAO, :)

Blasting as in...sand blasting. It's designed to crumble in a specific way.

I don't say this often but I agree with Joe.

I'm not sure about what ShinAce is talking about but it's worth a look if you have a Menard's handy.

I'm laughing at treitz since he seems to think blasting powder is explosive.

A pretty serious license is needed for that and Menard's isn't a dealer in explosives of that type.

LOL!!! Next time you are at Menards take a look at it, I use it in a sandblasting cabinet and the stuff pours and compacts real nice. To get the most mass and fill all the voids a mix of #9 lead and silica sand or black beauty might be best.
