Saw some mil surp .30-06 for sale pretty cheap at Sportsman's Guide. Korean manufacture, 1970's production. Would this be OK to shoot in a Remington 700?

yes, the Korean is pretty decent ammo, the best surplus 06 is the danish made one, buy all you can when you find some.

Re: Mil Surp .30-06
It's safe to shoot. However, it probably won't be nearly as accurate as most commercial ammo. Also, keep in mind that certain Korean surplus is corrosive and the most recently imported ammo has, in some cases, found to be a mix of both corrosive and non-corrosive. Great for plinking, but I wouldn't expect sub-MOA accuracy and be sure to check the headstamps and determine if corrosion is going to be a concern.

If I may,
The CMP has Greek surplus for $110 per 200rnd can. Shoots relatively well but is dirty.
