Not trying to rain on your parade, but it seems some things just aren't worth recycling, Shotgun wads and toilet paper are two that come to mine...

Don't take it too seriously.... It was all tongue in cheek.
That said, I knew a guy, now deceased, father of a close friend, who'd go out after a trap shoot and pick up used wads to use over again. Really.
Why back when-Used hulls, used shot we scraped up, rinsed off with a hose and dried in the sun. Used wads, the ones that looked fairly good were run thru a dryer cycle and many of them popped back like almost new.
Loaded shell for the cost of a primer which at that time was around $7/thousand. They broke 16-yard targets just fine.
