The best on the planet is rtgammo ( Ray Giles). Quite literally wrote the book.

Thank you. What a gold mine!
I see he has a big disclaimer on his from page asking that we don't ask for him to value or price ammo. I have some good vintage stuff that I want to get a value on.

You may want to check out "Wards Auction" site, they specialize in old collectable ammo and such.Quote:

Had many chats with Ray Giles at cartridge shows all over, bought and sold with him. He also co/authored a couple books on collectable ammo, really a great gent.
Yeah, I emailed him to see if he could send a fee table for appraisal. It's only fair to get paid for your time.
I'll check out Wards
Ray flew out from Texas and purchased my late uncles Collection, he was more than fair. Great gentleman.
