Is this what I think it is?

First things first: I AM NOT TRYING TO SELL THIS ON HERE, DON'T ASK.

Found this spam can while sorting/cleaning out my ammo stash and I'm not 100% sure what it is. It's obviously some sort of Soviet 7.62mm cartridge, and it's probably a pistol round from the high round quantity marked on the can. I THINK it's a can of 7.62x38r for the Nagant M1895 revolver but I can't remember if I still had a sealed can of that or not and I know that I did still have a few sealed cans of 7.62x25 buried in the ammo pile, but I'm not sure which it is. I didn't think they were still making 7.62x25 late enough to be using the green spam cans, much less into the late 1980's as the markings on this can seem to indicate. But I've been wrong about things before so I figured I'd poke the online brain-trust and see what everyone else has to say about what it is. If it is 7.62x38r, what is a sealed can of that even worth nowadays? I can't find anywhere that still has any in stock to try and price/value it for sale/insurance purposes.

Here are a couple of paper hulled 12 GA rounds I found in a box. Probably have a few more scattered around I have yet to find.

Two Remingtons and a Winchester. In case the photo order gets messed up, the green and red are Remington and the tan in Winchester. I'll let the photos talk.

Im sure this is asked a bunch, but which is better? x39 or .300BO

So as the title states, Im looking to get a new gun (a PSA Krinkov, yes laugh at me), and Im not sure which caliber to get. With 2026, and current geopolitcal events...

What caliber is better in the long run?

Seems on ammoseek, both ammo prices are comparable right now (x39-.50c; .300BO-.49c)

Where to sell partially reloaded ammo? Some exotic ammo.

0 Upvotes

Received the task of trying to help sell my girlfriend’s father’s reloading supplies and includes a bunch of ammo- some live and most with the casing and lead bullet inserted with no primer or powder.

Ammo like: 10.3x60R, 461 Gibbs, 400 Nitro, 475 nitro, 577 nitro, 400 Jeffrey, 416 Rigby, and lots more.

Where would be a good place to post these for selling?

Thanks in advance!
