Holy Smoke - From Ashes to Ammo

    I remember hearing somewhere where a shotgun shooter had his remains cremated, pressed into a clay, and pulled for his friends who at the memorial service, hit their target.

    What could be better than having your ashes made into a clay pigeon you ask? How about making ammo as well!

    Yes, be the first on your block to turn one pound of ashes into 250 rounds of ammunition for the low price of $1250!

    You can also get pistol or rifle ammo!

    After a shot, I always wonder when I break the action of my o/u and smell that distinct odor whether I should be breathing it in.

    Somehow I think that if I were shooting these rounds I would definitely not be inhaling.

    I can see it now Poulo. By this time, you'll be reloading in Ireland.

    You'll be pressing good auld Tack into some 7mm Magnums and you'll be looking for a box to hold the "contents."
