    Hey WTW ! I'm dating myself , but when I was in the navy back in the 80s and 90s I and alot of my sailor buddies read the book 93 Confirmed Kills about USMC Sniper Carlos Hathcock . Carlos used to fill GI woolen socks with rice just for this purpose . Besides having a rear rest for his rifle , he had a source of field rations if needed . He would sometimes take a bit of rice from a sock and spread it about the area to his rear . Birds would light on the ground to eat the grain . Any enemy approaching his six would cause the birds to take flight , thereby alerting him that he was being trailed . Pretty Cool .

    I put a bread bag as a liner in shot bags, crown royal bags, etc., then use whatever for filler. Flor-dri, sand, used corn cob from the tumbler, etc.
    Ziptie or rebar tie....

      Bread bags are great. When we lived in northern MN (early ‘60s) we put on light cotton socks , then bread bags, covered with heavy wool socks in our insulated boots. The bread bags kept our perspiration from wetting the wool socks, which would kill their insulation properties.
      In this application it’ll keep the sand from working through the fabric. For long term use, double or triple the bread bags.

    Hey not sure if someone already said this but the best option for me is to fill the socks with silica gel pellets (cat litter) and when not using it as a rest throw it in the safe with the guns to use it as dehumidifier.. multipurpose item
