Sowing Seeds by Shooting Shotgun Shells

Folks have created 12 gauge shells with unique loads for years.  I’ve seen bolos, teargas, flechette darts, whistles, tracers, and even the ashes of a deceased family member in order to scatter the remains on a fun range day after a funeral.  However, these shotgun “seeds” seem like a pretty fun gardening tool!

According to this FlowerShell they plan to sell these at an overpriced $50 for 4 shells.  Their site also comes with a political statement that “regular shells kill, flowershell gives life”.  They obviously don’t know that hunting sustains life for humans.

Nevertheless, it’s a great idea for reloaders who could toy with their own loads.  I’d love to see a time-lapse video of the flowers growing after being “planted”.

Now if you excuse me, I think I need to plant a few rows of crops with my TTI Benelli M2.
