as far as making sure barrels arrive safely the best bet would be put them in a PVC tube (caps on each end and wraped with bubble wrap inside),then place them in a boox with mpre bubble warp. Send them USPS registered mail.A bit slower as every one who touchs it has to sign for it but it will ariive.
As far as collecting on insurance form UPS -forget it,unless you are a lawyer with free time you don't stand a chance.Fed Ex is slightly better but both have thieves as employees and putting a high $$ insurance on it just makes it a target for them.
Best bet is USPS anyone can ship barrels (or long guns for that matter as long as its to a FFL) there.
