The shipment process needs to be evaluated to ensure contents are firmly packaged and secured. All seven ammunition boxes with this shipment show significant damage from excessive movement, resulting in severe shock and friction. Fortunately, the ammunition appears to be undamaged, as the rounds were protected by the internal plastic holders from the factory. A great value on ammunition is useless when the packaging is substandard. Furthermore, all ground shipments are at risk of significant stress because the carriers are all about quantity at the cost of quality handling. Hence shipments need to be prepared based on inherent risks.
