Man this is a great forum! Objective instead of biased, no trolls (not yet anyway), people disagreeing with class. I like it here! Going to shoot the stuff now!

I bought 3k rounds of the S&B stuff, shot maybe 500 of it, no problems here. Shoots like any other brass 9mm I've bought

Shot 100rds of it and I am NOT pleased! The super hardened brass cut through my match grade barrel like it was butter. To make things worse since the S&B has been reloaded multiple times, every round jammed and I had to hammer them out with a stick. (kidding!)

Sellier and Bellot has my stamp of approval. Clean, accurate, and well made. The tool at work can take his Glock and BVAC and go to hell!

Fire away and don't listen to that guy as he is a exactly as you said a tool. S&B is quality stuff and I will choose it time and again over the rest

I like S&B ammo as well. Shoots clean and cheap. I also like Fiocchi (which many do not) for the same reason. The only bad review of S&B that I've ever heard was that the colored primers stained the firing pin. Not a big deal to me.

With that said, the only ammo brands I did not care for are WWB and PMC bronze. Both seemed very dirty and felt inconsistent.

Sent using America's nonexistent 4g network - Sprint.

I have not shot Fiocchi or WWB, but I have shot PMC bronze and I did not like them.

The Czechs only produce a few very high quality items....girls, guns and ammo.


S&B is great ammo.

IMHO, S&B is one of the better fmj's out there. Some of the cleanest range ammo I've ever used. I shot 50 rounds of it in .38 yesterday along with 50 rounds 9mm. My m1 carbine eats it up like it was lobster.

Needless to say, some people just don't know what the f*ck they're talking about.

Hes been telling me for weeks that a 9mm bullet shot "level", will hit the ground after 58 yards! Finally called him on it, and he finally admitted he didn't know wtf he was talking about. It was funny as hell.

Actually a 9mm bullet rises for the first 75 yards or so...or so I've read.
