    I mirror Ben in that some of my oldest ammo was also the best stored and thus most trusted for reliability.
    An uncle died and left me a large quantity of Super X .38 wadcutter premium target ammo from the 1960s. He'd always stored it properly. It's still the most consistent factory ammo of its type that I've ever shot and over the years I've tested every newly-made premium load I can find on paper and over the chrono. The only other .38 wadcutter target ammo that has been about as consistent (though at much lower muzzle velocity) was CCI Blazer aluminum .38 wadcutters; that stuff surprised the hell out of me and I'm sorry I didn't stock up on that lot of ammo when I first encountered it.

    Point? Storage conditions are the single most important thing I want to know when someone wants to sell me old ammo.

    there are 3 or 4 boxes of 30-06
    2 different headstamps

    The 8 round clips are Greek manufactured in 1980 by the headstamp. If stored well, they should be good and fairly consistent.

    The KA 72 is a mixed bag. If the other 3 cans are all that lot, what is in the 30 cal box is the cleanest bunch (the pic with them all in the can neatly). The 50 cal can where they are mixed looks pretty good as well. The third can, the one with the dirtiest brass, looks to have originally been linked for machine gun use. It looks to have had some moisture exposure at some point prior to delinking since the discoloration stops where the links were.
