Just bought a brand new Ruger Mark III and got a brick of 500 bullets.

I love it. Also joined the NRA and am going to get my CCW as soon as possible. (shhhhh . . . don’t tell anybody, ok?)

500 bullets, eh?

nah, ain’t gonna go there.

But, I will ask how much you paid and marvel that you were able to obtain .22 lr at all.

Refinished 3 times and a new stock after 25 years running the swamps in a canoe, but still going strong. I lost track of how many rounds it has fired long ago.

Lots of squirrels in the pot!

you bought ammo, rounds, cartridges....

bullets are just the projectile.

just like the thing that holds the rounds is a magazine and not a clip.

Clips are real, but they either load magazines(removable or internal magazines) or hold rounds en bloc for specific firearms like the M1 Garand.
btw I have the MK II which is basically the MK III but without the lawyer generated ‘inprovements’...

"....and got a brick of 500 bullets."

What are you going to do with bullets? Your pistol is chambered for the .22 Long Rifle cartridge.

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

If you are old enough to use a keyboard, you are old enough to learn the language.

“Just bought a brand new Ruger Mark III and got a brick of 500 bullets.”

Were you able to get any brass, primer and powder?
