    8mm Lebel rounds

    Came across these stubbies at bottom of an ammo safe. Marked 8mm Lebel. Markings on case head at 3, 6, 9 & 12 o'clock read 1, 48, SF, I. Rounds should still work as it was kept in a humidity controlled safe and the powder still rattles. Google-fu says this is ball ammo. Are these collectible therefore not to shoot, just shoot them as its common ball ammo or are they worthless and just banish to the bottom of the scrap pile? Thanks.
