What's the going rate for the following ammo?

30-06 AP in en bloc clips
Romanian 8x57 (sealed crates)
Turkish 8x57 70rd bandoleers (all ammo has been inspected and cracked necked rounds have been culled)
Hungarian or Yugo (can't recall at the moment) yellow/silver tip heavy ball (sealed crate).

TIA

For AP .30-06 anything under 75 cents a round is a deal. Enblocks go for at least $1.50 each.

Romanian 8x57 sealed crates meaning two spam cans? I think I see $125 / spam can usually maybe $120 each for two in the case. Hell of a way away from the $20 bucks a can I was paying for in in 2003.

Turk 8X57 IMO is crap. Was 12 cents a round, these days they are trying to get 40 to 45 cents a round for it.

The 7.62x54r what you describe sounds like it's 1950's vintage. Should be 15 cents a round but now, probably 35 to 40 cents a round.
