So I was playing around in the back yard shooting the Gamo and using the shooting bags. Well I left them on the back porch and I guess they obsorbed a bunch of moisture bc now they are hard as a rock. I tried tapping on them with a rubber mallet but it's not breaking loose. Has anyone dealt with this? Can I dry them out and fix this or are they ruined?

I had a set do it, never went soft again. They should have a warning label stating if it remains hard for more than four hours...

A Democracy is when two wolves and a lamb vote on the dinner menu. That is why this country was specifically not designed as a Democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic.

Fill the next ones with plastic pellets and that wont happen again. You can get bags of them at hobby shops
