This is what the cool guys use:

Small enough not to clog flash holes if that's the way you tumble. $32 for 40 pounds shipped to your door in 3 or 4 days.

I highly suggest Drillspot as Ickisrulz posted above.

However if perchance you have a Graingers acrost the street from where you live, here's you go

Check your local sandblasting supplier. My last bag was around $35.

I don't know what the connection is but a couple of years ago when I bought a bag from Drillspot, it came with a Grainger return label.

I have an old hammer mill that I used to use for grinding up corn for the chickens. Has anybody tried picking up corn cobs in the field behind the combine and running them through a hammer mill? :D
