Getting rid of reload ammo

Legally, you can give them away, but not "sell" them. The term "selling" includes barter, as defined by Revenue Canada. Trading is barter.
However, the legality is a very minor issue. The big issue is your personal liability. Since they were reloaded/manufactured by you, then you bear full liability should anything happen. Likewise, if something catastrophic should happen to the person you sold/gave them to, even if he doesn't want to come after your, his family can come after you.
Pull the bullets and sell/trade as components, or make sure your personal liability insurance covers that situation. If you "sell" them illegally, then your personal liability insurance is likely void.

Pull the bullets if you still have a 30 cal
Or just drop them off at the police station. They'll take ammo for disposal.

Then do that. They're your shells. It would be my option before letting someone else shoot them because of the liability issue. I dont see an issue with turning in unusable, unsellable ammo.
Although tracers are kind of a grey area when it comes to legality, so maybe thats not the best option for you.

I had this happen once at a gun show. The guy wasn't advertising them as reloads and selling them for the same price as the guy beside him was selling factory ammo. On the bottom of each box was a sticker that said they were custom reloads or something like that. I guess next time I'll open up the case and have a better look before I pay.
