Gary, I figure that using No. 3 shot will make your pattern counting one hell of a lot easier. Bill

If it were me, I'd just ship the shells and quit worrying about big brother. They aren't going to blow up. I once made up 4 boxes of BP hunting loads for a fellow and just shipped them.

Post Office. Didn't insure them. They didn't ask what was in the package, I didn't say.

Just make sure the package is boxed and taped really good and gets there - no worries..... if it breaks open in transit or from handling NOT GOOD

Tools used for a "Precision Paper Punching Machine." If it's a gun then it's just a PPPM. But then you may want to insure a gun.

Gary, if that's from the lot of Kirkwood 8ga. You got from me, they are very old, perhaps 1915.
