This is cheaper still:
7.92x57 Mauser (8mm) (178 GR.)Sellier & Bellot mfr., 40’s mfg. Berdan primed, corrosive, FMJ, Boat Tail, brass case. 15 rds./box, 600 rds./case. *Priced per case. Price: $158.95
If you have a dealer account it is even cheaper than that (by about $50
) I like the Yugo stuff better, it shoots a little better for me. Never tried the Romanian, simply because I think steel cased ammo just ain't right. Ammo cases should be brass.

Cleaning cosmoline off of rifles that have been sitting a crate in eastern Europe for 60-70 years irks me a lot more than running corrosive surplus ammo through them. Anyone have an easy solution for that?

There are a bunch of different ways that people swear is the best, everything from running the stock through the dishwasher to making an oven out of a trash can and sticking it out in the sun for a couple days.
I just use Mineral spirits and/or Denatured alcohol and elbow grease.
