Is there any reasonable quality, reasonably priced boxer primed/reloadable surplus .308/7.62x51? Thanks!
 
Yep, all over federal lands, soon to be picked up and recycled in to nice water fixtures, or possible turned into five star crimp blanks.
 
Skip surplus and check out ATI's imports of new production Turkish ammo from a military contract facility. It's in the same price range and is boxer primed. My personal experience with it has been 100% good, although I've read reports of others with problems. Currently available at ammotogo.com and has in the past been available at AIM Surplus and possibly (can't remember for sure) ammoman.

Personally I would not shoot Indian in a gun I wanted to keep, and I'd be hesitant with Venezuelan.

Evan, does anyone currently have GGG (Lithuanian) .308 for sale?
 
+1 on Z Michigan - the ATI branded Turk (MKE) ammo is the way to go, from ammunitiontogo.com, around 48 to 50c a round. Good stuff, boxer primed, good brass. As far as I am aware it is the only lets call it 'brand new surplus' on the market. I believe that factory is currently awaiting NATO approval, so while it is currently not NATO headstamped, the mil-spec quality is there.
