I know of a fellow that had some of his cremains put in his duck decoys so he would be duck hunting with the boys after he passed...

  • semi-transparent Cheddite hull
  • ~19 gr Winchester Super Target (WST) powder
  • gas seal wad (no shot cup)
  • cork spacers
  • 1 oz 7 1/2 lead shot
  • 3 cc cremains
  • nicely printed overshot card
  • roll crimp




T-Rex Looks like it turned out real nice. I think you nailed it.

Thanks, I think I did, too. I'm actually pretty proud of them.

I got a lot of great information here. Some got used in the finished project, some got used for some personal projects, and some, like the chalk, are just too good to forget about. Think....red, white, and blue chalk for a 21 gun salute. The son didn't buy into that, but, still love the idea.

I knew a guy who did period re-enactments and the club he belonged to shot his ashes out of a old cannon!

I want my ashes shot into a golden eagle, which then eats a wolfs heart while soaring majestically. Born to be wild by Steppenwolfe plays throughout.
