What's your method for cleaning expanded bullets recovered from game?

I'm just curious to find out how others do this. Thanks for sharing!
 
Water and dish soap with toothbrush, the a short dip in hydrogen peroxide. Let dry and seal with lacquer dip if desired.

Do NOT use ammonia as it has a rapid corrosive reaction with copper.
 
Not an expanded soft but brandy works good on solids.

Tooth brush with soap and water. Then usually into my ultrasonic cleaner.
 
Rinse it off with water.

I didn't see your request re: ship co’s. My last shipment was 2023. Quotes from SBS Logistics ($1,198), Badger Cargo ($1,184 - used them) & AHG Trophy Shippers ($1,746). AHG owner's an asshole so wouldn't have used him anyway. Eastern Cape - Houston, TX, so your mileage may vary. NEVER use Karl Human Taxidermy aka Wild Africa Taxidermy on Eastern Cape. Trophies arrived shattered with no padding/packing material.
