My old Uncle Mike's shooting rest field bag has been a thorn in my side because it has always been too heavy to comfortably lug around. I had filled it originally with sand, then went to rice. Both fillers made the bag too heavy, and I am looking for a different filler that is lighter than either sand, rice or walnut tumbler media.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to a good light filler material, such as possibly corn cob husk material or a spherical styrofoam, etc., that would make the shooting rest bag easier to carry and be easy to get into the bag? I use it mainly for .22 rimfire rifles that don't have much recoil. The bag is shaped like the letter "X" and has four individual spouts for each of the four chambers, and is similar in shape to the Caldwell Tackdriver Shooting Rest Bag.
