I've been putting a hunting buddies ashes in all my hunting rounds since he passed. 270, 30-06, 300 RUM, 375 H&H, 264 WM. Only put a small amount on the tip of a small screwdriver and don't change the load at all. So far he has gotten a Kodiak Brown Bear, Muskox, Dall Sheep, a couple deer and one coyote. I usually spread about the same amount of ashes while I'm out in these spots hunting.
