Where did you come across some live ammo of this type?
Many of us have live ammunition to fire from our collection of so-called "Classic" firearms e.g. .303 for Britishicon military rifles of the Great War and Second World War.

If you just wish to collect expended ammunition (empty cases) or projectiles (bullets) there are no restrictions in law.

As far as live ammunition is concerned, .303 for example, is so-called Section 1 ammunition. That is to say it has to be held on a Firearms Certificate (FAC). In order to get an FAC one needs to show "good reason". Being a member of a bona fide club helps demonstrate this good reason - collecting.
