Before I do anything stupid ... Collectable ammunition
Posted: Wed May 14, 2025 4:04 pm
My club had a clear out of old .303 ammunition. I scooped the lot, intending to break them up and recycle the bullets for reloading.
The bulk are plain old RG .303 Mk7 of late fifties vintage.
However, I have three original boxes of ammunition that might be collectable and want to pick your collective brains lest I ruin something of historic value.
First up, a box of twenty rounds marked WRA 1941 .303 with the primers crimped in place with four staked stampings.
Are these rare / collectable / interesting enough not to be broken down?
