    break it up in lots,
    the Krag ammo, (1898 should be 30-40 krag right?) will bring about a buck a round maybe more,
    not sure what the rest is, caliber wise, but guessing 30.06,
    tracer and AP about a dollar,
    ball 75cents plus,

    Only $1 a round for old vintage ammo? I believe I would just keep it or break it up and list at higher prices to see if anyone "bites". Might be some collectors out there somewhere with deep pockets.

    Put the whole lot on CMP for 225. Problem with breaking up is shipping, No USPS, must go UPS or fedex. There is about 240 rds total.

    Yep been there done that after shipping anything I made extra got MORE than ate up over shipping. Although some individual headstamps will Bring more money it won’t be enough to overcome the extra cost. I sold all I did not want at gun shows.

    Your pictures are of full(?) boxes. Mostly nice clean boxes at that. Collectors prefer clean full boxes. The damaged(opened) boxes will bring less.
    The PA collector's show may be too far but there will be a Cartridge Collector's club near you.
    Rummage around here.

    If the AP is illegal, it's by State law. Also likely the Trace is evil too though. However, your Feds(ATF) say 7.62NATO AP is evil, but .30 AP(.30-06) is not. Some silliness about there being .308 hand guns.
    Question is how far from a border with another State are you?
    Spelling and grammar count!
