I thought Bulgarian came in the green spam can?  I have a whole ammo can of that stuff and 2 of those sealed cans in the pic.  Do you remember the weight of the bulgy stuff?

I remember getting some Bulgarian in a tin like on the right back in 2006.  A lot of the bullets were loose in the necks of the cases and some were split at the neck. If you know %100 it's Russian, so be it. If there's any doubt, I'd open it up and examine it/re-pack. The bad Bulgy was 182g also.
ETA - Agree on the crate of Czech silver tip. Very good surplus ammo in minty green boxes of 20 morsels each.

I have some Bulgy HB that came in tins like the smaller one too.

Czech silvertip is really good stuff.

It's hell on derelict cars and old CRT monitors.
