RSM, there are artillery shell collectors out there. Perhaps some google searches and poking around the various forums will produce some leads.
My second thought is to find the authorized military museum organization. The 25pdr was so common, it would be remarkable if every museum didn't have one or more empty cases in their inventory. If the question is asked the right way, you might find new life for a forgotten artifact that has been stored indoors for 60 yrs. It might be cheaper too.
Out of curiousity, how do you reprime and fire the shells?
