I was there today buying some fattening things and noticed they had it in stock.

Works great in my Champeen bullit trap....

I should have taken a picture, but it looked like fairly small chunks so it may also work for shooting rest bag fill

If a good target backing is important to you -everything.

I have been looking for  a nearby source that doesn't involve buying a huge quantity and there is an aldi store in the next town over-this is great news for me.

Some of the items at Aldi, especially the special buy stuff comes and goes quickly. May want to call to check stock

I buy the  nuggets from  lowes......0.8 cubic feet ...$6.94....bag last a while....good luck

[WhatUPSbox?]

Yeah, Lowes is probably healthier too.....My shopping cart from Aldi usually has pulled pork, apple strudel, pecan cookies, and...... in addition to whatever I went in for. sigh

 Now I'm hungry <Grabs mouthful of yummy rubber mulch>
Been looking for a deal I want a good sized berm of that stuff.
Ill have to check on bulk pricing I guess

Home Depot has 2 Cubic Foot bags for $2.00/bag

 Soon as this blizzard ends in another 24 or so hours I'm headed to Home Depot . Hmm maybe they'll deliver

In our area, the $2/bag mulch at Depot and Lowes is the wood chip stuff

[Back_Roads]

 Wood chips would work for a berm too I guess

Rubber mulch, stuffed into a 5 gal. plastic bucket set on its side, lid toward you is the best silent bullet trap I have ever used, up to and including 200 fpe. .257 Dyotat100/TalonDor and .22 and 17 pb. Have even used the 1911 with it a few times when fresh mulch is in the tub.

My wooden-box trap is stuffed with 2 bags of rubber mulch and will stop a 9MM +P.  Ask how I know

As far as I'm concerned, it's about the best dang pellet-trap stuffing there is, and incredibly easy to clean- dump into a wheelbarrow filled with water.  Lead sinks, rubber floats.

dont want to violate 3a, but ive but back to back 5 gallon buckets of rubber mulch can handle some serious suff!

slow and heavy penetrates the farthest.


if anything id be worried about some lower velocity flat pellets bouncing off. i know id get pellets coming back at me sometimes when hitting the rubber 22 gopher targets.
