Sellier & Bellot Caution

Dwight Gruber · 09-09-2005, 10:50 PM

Folks,

S&B 115gr FMJ is a favorite cartridge, it works very well in my Lugers, it can be had cheaply at gun shows here (in Portland) at times. However, anyone shooting it regularly should be cautious.

In the past year I have had two or three duds, one round with a primer inserted sideways (found it before I fired it), and just today had a split case (didn't hurt anything, but I had to pry it out).

I'm thinking of maybe changing ammunition.
