Lead shots for speaker stand.

I bought mine at a store that specialized in hunting and shooting gear. There is one of those in every big town in Vermont. I used #7 shot, comes in 25lb. bags for shotgun shell reload. Remember though that lead is a poison and treat it as such. Good luck and don't eat any on the way home......Bob

Snooker, any particular reason for the #7? I should be receiving a Lead Baloon turntable stand this week and plan on "loading" it with lead shot. I've been wondering what size though. Thanks.

Ditto on getting your lead shot from a hunting store -- better yet, a gun shop that carries reloading supplies. There are also several hunting equipment catalogs that sell lead shot. Lead shot is a bit harder to find than it used to be, since the federal hunting laws now require steel shot for hunting water fowl (birds were ingesting lead shot lying on the bottoms of ponds and getting poisoned).

Smaller shot usually works better for dampening -- easier to pour, more surface area, etc. I use either #7 or #9 shot in speaker stands, etc.
