Ugh....i wish I could give you a better answer. I had some of the Santa Barbara manufactured ammo several years ago. If the Palencia ammo was made on contract for the Spanish gov't like the SB, it should be non-corrosive. One easy way to check is pull the bullet and dump the powder, the pop the primer at a steel plate. You'll know by the next afternoon if it was corrosive or not. mm |

So is this ammo considered Santa Barbara? I have 2 unopened, sealed cases of it (2000 rounds per case) that I am thinking of selling, what would each case be worth? I don't want to open a case just to find out about the ammo.

Santa Barbara and Palencio are different factories/manufacturers. Unless it is in commercial packages, then it is contract ammo to the Spanish gov't....all 5.56mm may be gov't contract since it is a military caliber. I have no clue what the value might be, sorry. mm |

If it is non-corrosive and true 5.56--it very well may be worth $1000-1200 for all of it...
