Talk to Ralph at the next Duncan Gun show (don't know his last name but most people should know him). He is a big local collector and goes to shows all over the US

1. .50 Maynard?
2. .577 Snider (foil cartridge)
10/14. Mk IV .303 British

It's great to see that 100 year old Canadian made Mk IV .303 Ball ammo in the original packages.

Lots of nice stuff for the collector there! If he wants to sell, I think his best bet would be to sell it at a gunshow, either to other vendors, or at his own table. Shipping would be prohibitive on small lots. My Father could help him out on prices as he's got a very extensive collection. I'll let him know about this thread.

Neat'o!

A few Duncan gunshows ago, I stupidly passed up on 3 boxes of .303 bren ammo that was in the original boxes. I hope a collector got them.

Throw some of that stuff in a tumbler, it's looking a little grimey

BCBoy if he wanted to sell it as a collection I would hazard a guess that Curtis Steinhauer would be his best bet. www.cartridge-corner.com
Steinhauer does CDN/US business, so he would seem worth an email.

In looking through my IAA Directory I see several CDN members who list the 303 Brit as a primary interest to them, including one or two in BC. They likely could give you true collectors values, if you want contact info for them just let me know.

Wow, that is quite the collection!!
