    I'm currently in the US and will be looking into this further as I will be bringing several firearms related accessories back with me, including hopefully scopes, reloading equipment and projectiles etc.

    I will ask the security team on duty when I fly from New York to Orlando next week.

    I'll let you know what they say.

    I have done Similar things out of Hawaii with no problems ..... The last time was 2014.

    The other option is to have your parents post them to you, but this may be cost prohibitive due to the weight.

    Cheers

    My interpretation of TSA's response is that projectiles are not ammunition and therefore not subject to TSA firearm laws.

    As far as export goes, checked baggage is fine leaving the states.

    I'll declare them coming in to NZ and pay the gst.

    But, I will wait for your experiance. Thanks Pete
