I have a pile of .30-06 surplus ammo from ‘68-69 and ‘70.

A bunch loose in boxes and a bunch loaded in enblocs.

All still in the tins.

What sort of value per round do you suppose a guy could put on it?

Find a local auction company that is known for selling guns, ammo and gun accessories and sell online and let them sell it. ive seen 30-06 ammo going for 1.5 to 3.00 per round on online auctions. the em-blocks are bringing 1.50 to 3.00 each

US or import ammo? US will most likely be LC or WRA on the headstamp. Import stuff comes from just about everywhere, Greece, Egypt, Israel, etc. Some is better than others.

1.20 a round seems to be the going rate for greek. https://www.308ammo.com/HXP-PYRKAL-30-06-M2-BALL-GREEK-p/hxp3006.htm

Greek is decent stuff

I just bought a can of 500 rounds of Serbian 30.06 for $720 for my newly aquired M1 Garand. Comes out to about $1.45 per round
