no....
You will have to be more specific about some details to get an accurate answer. What caliber? Are you wanting to import it FROM the US to Canada? How many?
There is some discussions about this subject elswhere on the board.
BTW - I think the question should be, " What Components of a CARTRIDGE Can You Ship Without Issues? "
You can import some stuff from the US without breaking any laws.

Here is a link to many pages of discusion on the subject, some of it true.
I think there is some exceptions to the export rules discussed in there somewhere (there are 54 pages... and counting).

You can import brass & projectiles ( FMJ , Tracer , soft point )from the US with no restrictions on this side of the border . Problem is finding a US seller willing to send them You are not responsible for restrictions on the US side . that is the senders responsibility , If you personaly go to the US to get them then you fall under there restrictions
I am just trying to locate some FN 5.7 x 28mm ammo in canada. I have found lots of people in the US that are selling brass and I just wondered if I could bring the brass here (either ship or personally) without the headaches of bring live ammunition.
That thread is long and confusing, but I think I found the answer in it... like it was mentioned above... just because they are not combined, they are still not allowed.

Check with the buyer if they ship to Canda; if so, and your qty is reasonable, they'll know what they are doing and it shouldn't be a big deal. I have ordered both brass & bullets from regular ebay sellers with no problems. If you bring in hudge qty's then that would proberbly be a different situation putting yourself as an importer vs a consumer.
Whether a particular vendor will ship to Canada is up to the vendors internal policy and their chosen shipper. I have found UPS handles ammunition shipments into Canada best. However what I typically do is have items shipped to a US border parcel service then drive down, pick up and personally clear at Canada Border Services upon my return.
FACT: A Canadian citizen may import into Canada up to 5,000 rounds of ammunition for personal use.
The harmonized tarif code to use is:
9306.30.90.29 Ammunition - cartidges, and parts there of, NES
At Canada Customs the ammunition is treated just like any normal US merchandise purchase. You need to declare the amount of the purchase in USD. This will be converted to Canadian dollars and then you will be required to pay your provincial taxes.
The above information applies for personal use only.

and if you follow the above advise, the Canadian side is ok, and if the US side catches you, you may have a free colon exam and a free trip to Cuba for an undetermined amount of time.wonderful first post, explaining to people how to break US laws.......
please DO NOT try and import anything yourself. all illegal without paper work. and if you do get it approved, you can't export it yourself legally as a non US person. you can only legally take possession in Canada.
Sorry. 
You guys are right. Canadian laws say yes to import as I outlined. US laws say no to export. Very bad that these are not aligned. I have never myself encountered a problem in the US, but I guess as stated I was just lucky not to have been stopped in the US before reaching Canada Border Services.
