I've got a 25 round can of Ducks Unlimited brass shot shells. These are commemorative ammo. Loaded rounds. If I remember correctly, they are Remingtons. I wrapped the can in brown paper and put it away many years ago. I was wondering if anyone could give me a rough estimate of value.

no idea on the value ... and andrew's question does bring up a good point , the ones i fired were berdan primed and iirc brass plated steel , yours may be old enough to be regular primed and possibly even brass cased ( as opposed to plated ) a magnet would verify

They are definately brass and boxer primed. I had 2 boxes and shot one of them. Those shells were reloaded MANY times before they finally split. I was using Circle-Fly 11 ga. wads and GD powder. Took large pistol primers. I know magtech brass 12 ga shells run about $1 each $25/25. Thats why I was wondering if its worth saving them anymore.

Good brass hulls from RMC are around 3 bucks each but they will last a life time and then some.

Hello Swamp Man, RMC hulls are by no way near $3 a piece:
