OOC
Infuse item is one of the class features. You get various choices. The one in question is:
Repeating Shot
Item: A simple or martial weapon with the ammunition property (requires attunement)
This magic weapon grants a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls made with it when it’s used to make a ranged attack, and it ignores the loading property if it has it.
If the weapon lacks ammunition, it produces its own, automatically creating one piece of magic ammunition when the wielder makes a ranged attack with it. The ammunition created by the weapon vanishes the instant after it hits or misses a target.
So without this Snoric couldn't use a shield (need two hands to reload) AND he'd need a supply of gunpowder/ammunition. Unless he could learn the secret of making gunpowder, he'd probably swap Ultio for a crossbow (or more likely his handaxe).
I can still use bullets (if I had ones with special properties for example) but I don't have to.
In privateer (if you can recall that far back) the catapult on the Tempest used this feature. It didn't have a supply of rocks, which would seriously hamper seaworthiness, she fired 'magic rocks', courtesy of the ship's artificer. Slight bend on the rules but the GM allowed it in exchange for 2 infusion slots!!! :P
