    Help! Trying to find out the value of all brass shotgun shells

    I'm new so please be patient.

    I have a full box (25 rounds) of what appear to be military shotgun shells.

    The box is plain brown cardboard with no manufacturer's name on the box. The shells inside are Winchester. The Box has the following on top:
    25 Shells, Shotgun
    12 Gage, Brass
    Smokeless Powder
    No. 00 Buckshot
    For Use in Hunting Small Game

    Two opposite sides of the box have:
    Lot W.R.A.-22003

    There are no other markings on the box.

    The shotgun shells have "Winchester No 12" on the primer end and "00 B" on the wad end.

    The shells are in good shape. The box has a tear on one side but is serviceable.

    Any ideas what these guys might be worth?

    Thanks

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    I typically get about $250 for a box like this when I find them. Box condition has a lot to do with it.
    I don’t run across them near as often as I’d like!
