Came across this link in another thread here
http://www.drillspot.com/products/521055/econoline_526040g-40_40_lbs_blast_media
It was reccomended because of price and because it doesn't get stuck in flash holes. Price is great and includes shipping. It is ground a lot finer than what I'm used to, so while I haven't used it yet it shouldn't stick in the flash hole. I assume it may take a little longer but give a better luster due to the finer grit, but that's just my guess. It's hard to visualize 40 ponds of media until you have to find another 5 gallon bucket with a lid because the first one's full. (it came packaged in a heavy duty paper bag, the kind you buy seed taters in)
I'd also like to brag on their shipping. I placed my order Easter Sunday, got a "your order has shipped" email about 0600 Monday, order arrived about 1730 today (Tuesday). Good service for an order placed around a holiday. It may help UPS getting it here since Ohio and Kentucky border each other, but kudos to Drillspot fot getting it on the truck so fast too.
