Application / Regulation advice How to ship ammo Ont to BC

Moving this summer. Not driving and for reasons have to fly.

I know some airlines offer 5kg ammo checked in luggage once declared. I'm not sure if that's 5kg per bag or total per passenger.

Thing is I have a couple thousand rounds to move.

Canada Post says it's dangerous goods. Looks like UPS or Purolator only ships it via third-party.

Seema like it'll be more costly to move than to rebuy.

is there something I can do or best to sell it?

my friend was gonna mail me ammo, store by him was selling bulk ammo but local pick up only. It was gonna cost like $300 with Purolator to send it so we didn't bother.

another friend was gonna send me a bunch of 303 British via air cargo, it was doable and legal but when i sent him the labeling requirements and forms, it wasn't worth the effort for him
