To ship shells for testing (or to a shoot), UPS or FedEX ground will require a separate package label to state: "ORM-D:small arms cartridges". Take it to a UPS/FEDEX master terminal as many local UPS/Fedex stores will not accept ORM-D labled packages. Call first to be sure your shells will be accepted for shipping at that facility.
