just to add to this:
if he could produce an ammunition that allowed anyone to pick up a gun and shoot mages dead, every bad guy in ordered space would be after him and his family to get it. He or his family WOULD have been abducted and WOULD have had it tortured out of them...
Hell, Scaglietti would have done to get orichalconium ammo for his gadget drones, making them a serious threat instead of a nuisance, and the Bureau would have been promptly rolled over.
And as for claims he couldn't do so...Due + infiltration + pickpocketed sample + reverse engineering = ????
Bottom line, if something so potentially paradigm shifting existed, it would have been taken, exploited and the paradigm would have been shifted, with Mages going from top dogs to little more than a footnote overnight...
