I found these articles good when I started heavy sandbag and odd object lifting.
I have navy sea bags ($18usd) filled with pea gravel or wood pellets. I have a 70kg wood pellet I use for circuits. Also, a 110kg pea gravel I use to simulate a stone. It's pretty tight and round. I use it for loading, shouldering, and various carries.
I also use a keg, some concrete blocks, and bumper plate loads on pins I have made from threaded 1.5" pipe. I love odd object lifting, it's a great compliment to my KB and BB training. It has brought my strength and power to another level.

Washed Pea gravel is slightly heavier, and far less messy. A 25kg bag is about $6 at Home Depot.
The Ader sandbag is expensive. I was going to get the large Ironmind sandbags, but the Canadian dollar was very low at the time. I bought 4 heavy canvas surplus navy sea bags for the price of one Ironmind. They are a great economical option.
