How do you mail ammunition?

I put in box, I mail box. I not declare contents

I put in box, I mail box. I not declare contents I get caught and pay $75,000 fine to the FAA.

Fixed it for you.

packaging requirement : ORM-D

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~
49 CFR 172
(c) The marking ORM-D is the certification by the person offering
the packaging for transportation that the material is properly
described, classed, packaged, marked and labeled (when appropriate) and
in proper condition for transportation according to the applicable
regulations of this subchapter. This form of certification does not
preclude the requirement for a certificate on a shipping paper when
required by subpart C of this part.

I chose the first option because there was no polling option for "brown recluse" .......

What about the reverse? I had my CMP ammo shipped to a local Fedex Kinkos a few times before getting stung (the third time they sent it back to CMP without telling me!! CMP was super nice about it FYI).

Will UPS retail stores also refuse delivery in everyone one's opinion?

I guess I answered my own question. I shipped some linseed oil from garand gear to my local UPS store and it had a ORM D tag....

Linseed oil would have the "ORM-CONSUMER COMMODITY" label not the "ORM-D CARTRIDGES, SMALL ARMS" label, so it might not get as much scrutiny from the employees of that "The UPS Store".

Also: hard limit of 60 (or is it 70?) pounds including all packing materials. Found that out the difficult way -- had to go home and re-package into two boxes.

66 pounds (30kg). Any more than that and you loose ORM-D status and revert to HazMat, division 1.4S "explosive".

I have a question and this seems like a good place to ask. Since I can't ship to LA city...could I have ammo shipped to Pico Rivera? Would some vendors still reject that?
