The government doesn't buy bullets, they buy ammunition.
Ammunition consists of more than several cartridges. Each cartridge contains a shellcase, a primer, propellant powder and a bullet.
Bullets are to cartridges as cement is to concrete, as flour is to bread, etc. If you are going to write on a forum, please learn the language and proper terminology.
