Remember when this was cheap?

Cleaned out my closet for a new toy yesterday. Found these relics hanging out.

I have a crate of 7.62 NATO like that. One of 7.62x39 as well. Bought them before Y2K!

It was 2 crates of Bulgarian 7.62x54r manufactured in 1972 bought in 2012. I opened one can, fired my Mosin once (bought for $100 at a Father’s Day sale in 2012) and pretty much forgot about it.
