    Burning through some North Country pellets I bought a few season ago and last night, came across a bag where as soon as I picked it up, I could tell by the weight something wasn't right. It was only about half full! There were no rips, tears, or holes in the bag, so the product didn't leak out due to mis-handling. Must have come this way from the mill. Anyone else ever seen this happen?
