Once you have a pretty substantial bullet collection, its best to start labeling/naming them so 1. You won't get them mixed up and 2. They will feel special. A couple of years ago I was sweeping leaves and I unearthed a bullet labeled, "David Rubell." I was confused for two whole days. I kept calling the little bullet, "David," but he didn't answer. "Comere David. Comere!" Nothing. He just sat there. Then on day 3, I realized, duh, this bullet is for David Rubell. So I looked up David Rubell in the phone book and drove to his house and knocked on the door. He wasn't home, so I just left the bullet with his name on it on his porch with a note that said, "This is for you." And then the police showed up at my house, which is another story entirely.
HOW TO PROPERLY LABEL A BULLET:
Obtain a high-quality label maker. Think of a fitting name for your bullet, or if it's for someone else, put their name on it. Everyone makes the mistake of using the same color ink and font. If you are going by the 1946 American Guide to Assigning Bullet Monikers (Penguin), you will know that personal bullets (bullets with a personality that you have no intention of giving away) are to be labeled in black ink, Verdana Font:
Mr. Richard. If the bullet is intended for someone else, it is to be labeled in red or blue and handwritten. The rule is loose as to whether or not you underline the last name and if you add an exclamation point.
Good Luck!
