Surplus bullets?

Anyone have a good source for surplus .308 bullets? I like shooting SMKs, but I'd also like to work up a good blasting load for the .300 Whisper. Commercial bullets are around $0.25 and up.

I've found a source for .308 Israeli pulldowns for $110 / 1000. But I found a place a few weeks ago that had surplus bullets for around half that price. Now I can't find it.

I believe these cheaper bullets were actually .311" pulldowns from 7.62x54R, which had been swagged down to .308". And I'm also not sure if they were copper jacketed, or steel jacket with a copper wash. Anyone ever try loading these in the .300W?

Any other sources of surplus or other inexpensive components?
