    Common, ignorant, use is to call a loaded cartridge a "bullet."

    To avoid confusion I buy projectiles which I (eventually) seat on top of a case which has primer and propellant.

    I had a Firearms Licence Vetter ask me why I had boxes of "bullets" on top of one of my gunsafes.
    Technically she was correct as they were/are 80 gr A-Max .223 projectiles.
    What she thought was that I had loaded ammunition outside of a locked box or gunsafe.
