I am NOT shipping lead in flat-rate containers. I have a conscience. d8-)

Bullet mfrs like Berry, XTreme,Meister, etc routinely ship (lead)
bullets in flat rate boxes. An order of 2000 220-grain (.45ACP)
bullets is about 62.8 lb plus packaging materials.

What do they do about the prohibition on shipping live ammunition via
USPS?

Someone here just failed Reading Comprehension 101...

More like sentence construction. It would have been far more clear to
state "ammunition components", or "bullets for reloading".

There's nothing ambiguous about the term "bullet". If one said
(redundantly) "bullets for reloading", those who confuse "bullet"
with "round", "cartridge" or "unit of ammunition" could still be
confused as in "how do I reload my pistol with those little lead
thingies? They won't stay put in the magazine! "
