"Looks like she may have had 100’s of bullets too."

Fairly unlikely. Bullets are those little thingies that are inert chunks of metal that don't do much of anything all by themselves. If you couple a bullet with a shellcase, propellant powder and a primer, you have an assembly called a cartridge. Multiple cartridges are known as ammunition.

Bullets are to cartridges as flour is to bread, as cement is to concrete, etc.

Words have meanings.
