shipping ammo
I have searched high and low and can't seem to find the right info for shipping via Fedex. I have an account setup and all the boxes. Can I just pack and ship ammo through Fedex without any special arrangements with Fedex? I know it is a pain to ship live fish with fedex, you have to send them a sample shipment first for them to approve before you can actually ship live fish. Any rules like this for ammo?

Check the stickies above. There's one titled 'Shipping Ammunition and Firearms...'.
That will give you requirements for package labeling.

If you're not dead set to go through Fedex, I'd checkout UPS, I just sold/shipped a bunch of ammo for the first time over the last month and a half, and with UPS it's a breeze. You just have to pack it, slap a hazmat sticker on it and take it to a customer service center and ship it, you really don't have to jump through any hoops.

Here are the UPS guidelines:
Shipping Ammunition: UPS - United States
UPS accepts for transportation such ammunition as constitutes 'cartridges, small arms,' as defined in 49 C.F.R. § 173.59.Best.

I spoke with them this morning and it seems like the same with Fedex. Just have to include the "limited quantity" black and white diamond sticker. Be under 60 ish pounds and packed properly. Only thing with Fedex is you can't take it somewhere to ship or drop it off. You must schedule a pickup. I have a power gate at the end of my driveway and Fedex doesn't like to come in. There is a drop off about 3 miles from my house. I sure was wanting to use it to drop them off and be done with it.
