Ammo value question
Ammo value question
I have a couple boxes of ammo I'd like to get some input on, very odd calibers. I guess, are they even worth the effort trying to sell? And if so, where? Retail on both seems high, but I think the market seems low. First up is a Hornady 20 round box of .375 Ruger...African safari stuff I think. The other is a 50 round box of Remington .218 Bee...varmint rounds, has a gopher on the box. I have no use for either so I'd be looking to pass it along cheaply. Having to ship UPS marked ORM-D and all that seems like a hassle...Anybody think it'll be worth the trouble? Thanks in advance for any nudges in the right direction.

Re: Ammo value question
Put it on gunbroker.com, start at a buck fifty a round at the least, buyer pays shipping, make sure you bang them enough for it, there is no haz mat fee for loaded ammo.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

I'm so soured on ebay right now because of seller fees, I didn't even think of gunbroker. I'll have to give it a look. Thanks!

Re: Ammo value question
GB will not charge you to list it, or if it fails to sell, only if it sells and they are better than eBay by far. Also more gun guys that any auction site in history

“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
