Hi everyone

Going through some of my ammo and have these:

Collect? Shoot?

What are they worth?

Have some other interesting 303 ammo which I will post in the coming days. Some red tip and grey tip military ammo. Red:tracer? grey?

The bottom bundle appears to be Canadian manufactured, so that'd be a keeper for sure - but both are more valuable in their current state than going down range. It's a bit like the '50s/Korean War era Canadian Arsenals .303, they aren't making any more of it and as time goes by the value keeps creeping up.
 
I just sold two packs of those on Saturday at the Salmon Arm Gun Show, which was great as usual.

I sold both to the same fellow. $75 for the pair.
 
More than 50 yrs ago I remember walking the old rifle range at Camp Hughes, MB with my dad and picking up brass headstamped 1912. Also found some bullets in the butts. I've still got this somewhere.

We also took a look around for some 25 pdr cases that he stashed there while training as a gunner in WW2. Of course we didn't find them, but it was fun to look.
