Plenty of info out there on the interstate transport of firearms, but I can't find any info on the transfer of ammunition.

My dad was at Cabela's the other day, and he called me and told me he was picking up a box of Federal AE 5.56 FMJ, 200 rds, on sale. I said, hey grab me a box.

So he will be driving it from Pennsylvania to Florida. Any problems with that? I know some states ban hollow points or frangible ammo, but this is FMJ. Any prohibitions on the number of rounds? Any legal issues at all with driving it across state lines in those quantities? He will not have any firearms in the car.
