I agree with Pax.

Don't get rid of ammo if you don't have to. Might be just a few months until it'll be too hard to find.

That being said, I'd be interested in the M67 if you're dead set on selling some.

Unfortunately I have to sell the ammo. I don't plan on firing corrosive ammo through my rifle.

You're doing yourself an injustice not running that M67. It's some of the best there is. Corrosive is no big deal, and depending on when it was produced, most all Berdan primed ammo is corrosive. PAX

Would suggest you put a for sale ad up in the Miscellaneous For Sale section. 
Know that shipping ammo for a private party is not easy or necessarily cheap.  1000 rounds of 7.62x39 in a 8x8x6 box is likely to run you $40-$50 in just shipping via FedEx/UPS when the proper "Cartridges, small arms ORM-D" / limited quantity option is selected.  They are not allowed to have you drop off the box at a location, both their rules require you to schedule a specific pickup, so that adds a bit to the cost as well.  Your best bet may be a local face to face sale.

Good luck!  thumb1

Was going to throw the whole lot up on Armslist for $175 OBO depending on actual number of rounds.

Someone local to you should jump on it for that price. PAX
