For a potential sale in the immed. Memphis area, I have 120 rds. Will be Local, In Person...only. Not worth the trouble to do otherwise.

In the six beige twenty-rd. boxes, it was described at our gun club simply as "corrosive".
Only marking on the boxes: "ONE 23". Nothing else, at all.

Headstamp "23", "66", darkish-green lacquered cases, copper-jacketed fmj. Exc. condition.
 
It's old MFS made Hungarian, should have a 126 grain lead core bullet. Seems to be loaded hotter than most combloc surplus and reportedly with a more terminally effective bullet.

No idea on value in your area, but around here probably 50 or 60 cents a round to knowledgeable shooters.

If you advertise it locally the price is limited only by your chutzpah and how much the most desperate local is willing to pay. :ninja:
 
Red Army 7.62x39 is available at 52c/rnd online. Steel case 7.62x39 is running above 50c/rnd currently, you can check prices at Gun_Deals. While folks can buy online at 50c/rnd, hard to sell unless your price is lower. I typically set my price at 80%; otherwise, takes a long time to sell. Amazing 223 steel case is now 70c/rnd. I just sold 500 rounds locally at 50c/rnd, made profit and helped folks who need them!

You guys are finding ammo available locally? Local stores out here looks like they were pillaged by Vikings.

Sidenote: you guys all realize that for Cases of modern (all non-corrosive) 7.62x39, prices >> with online distributors << have Dropped...

.. ..from a minimum of $620 in Oct/Nov...... :scrutiny: down to $500 for 1,000 rds. of Wolf or Tula? --------Just want to add this for those who didn't realize.

This plausibly could indicate a Tiny forerunner/thin, leading edge of reduced hysteria (and people Have noticed : zero (0) long-awaited Exec Orders signed regarding guns/ammo), which could very slowly spread to 9mm and .223.
Or it might just be increased overseas production/shipping partly catching up with disgust over insane prices +sales taxes etc).
