Hunting with Dad

[Gunnnn]

A few months ago a friend asked me if I could load him special turkey ammo because he knew I loaded all my ammo I said sure what can I help you with and told me that his Dad had passed and wanted to know if I could load some ammo using some of his Dad’s ashes in the shells so he could take his Dad hunting one more time I was sure I could so I did some research and found out through the people I buy my reloading supplies from and they said that it would be like buffer so I told my buddy that I’d do it

That’s a powerful way to keep someone close in a moment that matters more than most people realize

This is a 1.375 oz load of #9 tss using a 2 3/4”Reloading Specialty Sam’s one wad with 2, 1/8” felt spacers over 33 grns of Alliant Steel powder running 1350fps using 10grains of his Dad’s ashes for buffer and it’s a turkey killing machine
