Price check on 880 crates of 7.62x54r?

Alphabrew · Jan 9, 2016

I've been hearing $300 but that sounds stupid. What's a fair price per crate of Bularian surplus sold locally?

ETA: I should have been more clear, I'm selling not buying

Bertfish · Jan 9, 2016

That does sound too pricey unless the Bulgarian is more expensive for some reason

Doubt you'll find it in stock locally. If you do, won't be cheap. This is a terrible time to buy it. You're better off waiting a few months until the panic buyers and hoarders get burned out.

Primary elections are in full swing the first week of March ... if you think there is no panic coming when its apparant that Hillary is the Democratic nominee ... I won't feel sorry that you didn't buy ammo when you could.

$300 and up is probably what you are going to see on 54r for the next year or 13 months. I'll buy you a coke if you can find it every week next summer for less than $150 a can.

Can't say I disagree with you. Won't surprise me. It's why I stocked up and then some a long time ago. I figure there *might* be a temporary lull in a few months. I stress *might*.

Let me know if you come up with a price. I would be interested. Plus would be an excuse to go to Dunkin Donuts.

I have no idea what everyone else is doing but we have been selling our 54R for $125 a tin/$240 a crate I believe.

Holy crap. I had no idea there was a run on 762 x 54R. I'll sit this one out.

For that price for surplus I'll reload it.

The usual panic buyers and hoarders with more money than common sense. Some of them are paying over $200 per tin, not per crate. Nuts.

When you run out are you able to get more at a similar price point or is that it?

smdub · Jan 10, 2016

54R surplus hasn't been avail online in quite a while. I'm well stocked but I've asked a couple of places I've ordered from before when they will see more. None know when it will come in again.

Cabelas was having a sale for while, .35 per round shipped non corrosive. But I got some stock up, so I didn't get them!

Careful. Might be a lot less corrosive but I've never seen spam can 7.62x54R that's truly non-corrosive.

psoyring · Jan 10, 2016

I probably would pay a premium for heavy ball but not light ball.

The .35 per round shipped by cabelas was the wolf silver bear non corrosive. The spam can like we all know are corrosive (it was $80-$100 shipped per spam can). I didn't pay a lot of money for my Mosin, clean it with ammonia, and lube it everytime I shot it. So far so good.

Dmacri25 · Jan 10, 2016
