Sounds like the kind of service Ernie would have wanted, as far as the trucks, that seems appropriate.
I have a trapshooting buddy that wants his ashes loaded up and shot off in a round of trap; his wife has said 'no way'. Seems if that's what he wants... but ashes over a fishing does seem more appropriate than mixing the ashes in with 1 oz. of No. 8 shot.

For one thing, it's got to be a lot more abrasive on a fine shotgun barrel than the plastic filler. Just how I'd want my friends to remember me: eroding their shotgun barrels. :)

I think it would take at least a couple boxes of shells to dispose of all the ashes, from what I've seen there's at least a quart of them, time it's all burned. OTOH, maybe the ashes could be pressed into clay pigeons, that ought to scatter 'em pretty good. I mean when the #8 hits them.
