Sellier & Bellot Ammo

RE: Sellier & Bellot Ammo
I used to use S&B ammo in 22 hornet. It always shot well for me. I usually got 1" groups at 100 yards. Which is probably about as good as any ammo would of shot out of that gun. I tried several different loads, and they all averaged that. Good buy IMHO.

It is made in Eastern Europe, the Czech Republic I think. I don't know why they'd use bullets made in the U. S.. Maybe they've a license to produce bullets and use those names on them. The only thing I ever used it in was a Model 94 Mauser, and it didn't do well. But neither did any other factory ammo.

fired alot of their buckshot.....went bang every time....thats about all i know.....nothing like a good stress reliefe....set up some water jugs...pop cans....ect...and stand back.....load up the riot guns full of buckshot and any other safe random 12ga loads we could find and just blast away....the buckshot is self defense stuff my buddy keeps....and when he gets it cheap he will burn some up....and get rid of some old stuff......

I shoot a lot of 303 brit., S&B 303 is the best ammo and is great for reloading( boxer primed).
The 25 rnd boxs of OO buck shot work great also.

What rifle were you using?? from the looks of the group id say it was a semi auto, with not very long pauses between shots

We in Russia are compelled to shoot poor-quality cartridges.
We have resource where characteristics and targets are published.

Hornady, Hirtenberger, Winchester, Lapua, Federal - it is much better.
Compare targets and all becomes clear

Can be, Czechia deliver on our market a second-grade cartridge.
Selling people. Well, they now in NATO.
Still it is possible to smoke the Bulgarian cigarettes, but for this purpose it is necessary to not love itself very much.
Good luck.

RE: Sellier & Bellot Ammo
before my grandfather died he worked for a ammuntion plant in the former yugoslavia, the ammo was packaged under the hansen cartridge company here in the US. Sasha have you ever tried any of this ammo? I used to use it alot in 308 and 30-06 but now days i cant find it anymore it was some good stuff, Then I started using S&B and it seems to be just as good. perhaps S&B supplies second rate stuff to europe but I have had good results here in the US.
