Just a note, a lot of that DAG 308 has been coming out really corroded and you'll never know until you open the battlepack.  I had a buddy bought a 1000 a few months back and about 30% was so corroded he wouldn't shoot it in his AR-10.  Ran it through a buddy's machinegun and it all worked but it was really nasty with green corrosion.

Myself if I had ammo that looked that bad I would clean it abit first and look at it ,,,Do Not tumble it in your brass tumbler!
there is also S&B around that is cheaper but corrosive .

Ammoman will tell you if it's corroded with the product description. They show pictures of the ammo if you click on the icon. Haven't had any problems with the company on my previous orders.

If you don't mind shooting tarnished brass case, non corrosive ammo check out the Portugese 200rd battlepacks at a gun show near you. You can also get it from SAMCO Global. Unpacked  a battlepack and put it on strippers in bandoliers. 20% corroded(shot first, it shot fine), 30% tarnished  and 50% clean. All shot without malfunction.  Wolfman
