advice from ammo collectors

[bross]

Hello. I've discovered a package of 1899 303 ball, hollow point among some ammo my Dad gave me.
I know almost nothing about the collection side of ammunition. Is this desirable, and if so, what would be a fair asking price?

Yes, it's desirable. That's Mk IV produced by Dominion Cartridge in Canada. The packet is missing the string tie and has been opened, but presuming all the rounds are there I would think $50 - $75.

Thank you all for your replies. I was not planning to shoot them, but really don't need them. I'll put them on the EE and find them a better home.

Not Dominion Cartridge which was a private company producing sporting ammo.
It was made by Dominion Ctg Factory later Dominion Arsenals a crown corp making ammo only for the govt.

Yeah. I know. That's why I didn't write Dominion Cartridge COMPANY, which was the name of the civilian firm.
