What is the best price for good surplus 308 ammo. I would consider good to be on par with the South African and Portugese surplus. I've not tried the Australian, but I think it is in the same ballpark. The Indian ammo is "right out".

If you think it matters a lot, I plan to use it in my CETME.

I know of places that carry these but I think the prices are a bit high.

I've seen Portugese 1000 round for $137 + tax at gun shows and $149 + shipping on the web. I've also seen 1260 rounds of South African for $189 + tax at gun shows too. So far all I can find is Australian for $137 / 800 and 200 round (bandoleers) for $36 + tax.

So...
Portugese = ~$0.16 to $0.17 / Round
South African = ~$0.16 / Round
Austrailian = ~$0.18 to $0.19 / Round

I thought I was getting the South African for about $0.13 / Round last year.

Does anyone have any better prices out there?
 
.18 per round is the best price I've seen on the Aussie, but for my money it's the best ammo out there, surplus wise.
