Default Antron for dries?

I'm out of gray dry fly dubbing. Can I use Antron or an Antron blend for my Adams instead?

I balled up the Antron and the blend and tossed them in a bowl of water. They suspended in the water just below the surface, and when I tapped the bowl they sunk.

Will the hackle counteract this? I'm not in the habit of using floatant, but I do always have some on hand.

Can I make the Antron work?
