If your ruleset is static (e.g. does not depend on the local IP
address), it's very close to not needing a shell: all it would need is
for systemd to support StandardInput=/a/file/path, or for
iptables-restore to support "--file /a/file/path", or something similar.

iptables-save | sudo tee /etc/my-firewall
ip6tables-save | sudo tee /etc/my-firewall6

ExecStart=/bin/sh -c 'iptables-restore < /etc/my-firewall'

ExecStart=/bin/sh -c 'ip6tables-restore < /etc/my-firewall6'
