Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

bullets, bullet, ammo -> ammunition

I'd say shells and magazine too but those obviously have other meanings.

Bullets are just the projectiles. I'd imagine that if somebody searches bullet, they probably want to see bullets flying, not just somebody with a bandolier.

We do have shooting at least, but none of these are very widely used.

+1 to OP. Anyway…

Yeah… the gun-related tags in general are a mess. There's not a whole lot of them, but they can be quite different.

For instance, you see one character firing a rifle. Obviously, they're shooting. But in another image, you see tracers without the shooter being visible. But that would be tagged with bullet… but aren't they basically the same thing?

And then people tag cartridges or even casings as bullet, adding to the confusion…

Also the small set of really specific gun tags like Ruger_M77_MkII_VLE, added just in case anyone happened to be looking for it.

Alias of bullets to --> bullet approved. While other things were mentioned, it doesn't look like they those things reached a clear consensus yet.
