Default nose weight xxx / xxx cr

we have tryed to get in as much weight as possable.but cant seem to get in what we were told was needed,that was until tonight when matthew said why not try rig putty dad,its like plaster scene but as heavy as lead,its used for fishing its ace and we got 30grams in nps at all, and get into all those little nooks and crannys,an when u want it out it just comes out with very little effort it stays soft.
here check the pics
