First one is Czech 54R, best shooting 54R I have ever found, you can send it my way

Second I think is Romanian 8mm.  Not totally sure, if it has 2 spam cans inside it is.

Just a tip, almost anything that has 7.92 is 8mm Mauser.  7.92mm was the metric designation

Agreed. The 54r should be in 20rd minty green boxes with silver tip bullets.
The 7.92 will be in paper packs (in the spam cans) and be a dark lacquer coated steel case with red sealant around the primer and case neck.
Both are good stuff.
I wish I had picked up a few  pallets  of both 5 or 6 years ago.

This thread proves how bad I have it.  Random ammo crates, and I know exactly what it is where it's from, and probably what year it is too
