Ammo Help Please

[Retired Army]

I inherited some ammo from my father when he passed away and am trying to identify the caliber. I think he had a Norinco SKS that he used to fire it from. I have about 400 rounds, on stripper clips of 10 rounds each. The stripper clips are wrapped in brown paper and "packaged" 3 clips or 30 rounds each bundle I think. Havent gone through it all yet. The only markings I can find on the rounds are the headstamp numbers "31" and "76" opposite each other. I have tried to attach the pics. Sorry if they are blurry. I appreciate the help guys. Trying to determine what it is so I can get some type of value.

Thank you gentlemen for the quick response. Never owned anything that fired it.

The stuff is not cheap. If you decide to sell it you should have no problem getting a nice price for it.
