A company called “Holy Smoke, LLC” claims to offer the unique service of loading ammunition with human remains (ashes) contained in either the shot cup or sealed in the bullet/projectile.

The service costs $1250 and results in 100 rounds of rifle ammunition, 250 shotshells, or 250 pistol cartridges, in the caliber/gauge of your choice. There is a surcharge for wildcat calibers and “larger” pistol and rifle calibers.

Ashes as Ammo

Holy Smoke LLC

I can see the customers. From exacting revenge on your murderer or wife to using Grandpa to help win an IDPA comp. Something for everyone.

Maybe these bullets will work on ghosts. For $1250 they better be self-guided

Someone obviously was wily enough to capitalize on the term 'going out with a bang'...

Wow...

And for those who liked their 'vitals' is there a cannon shot option?

You know, people asked me how I wanted to be treated when I die. I said, "Cremate my body. Then make tea with my ashes and serve to guests at my funeral." Muhahahaha!

As for putting ashes into ammo, that's is crazy thing to suggest. In my opinion, $1250 is way too pricey. But I can see people who would love this.

Is this the Hunter S, Thompson lite burial?
Can't afford a rocket? How about a bullet?
My Dad's an NRA instructor, he might go for this.

At $1000 for a few bursts, those bullets better have the HIV virus as well. That way, a graze wound will still kill- well, maybe after a year.

I doubt that company would last long though.
