S&B 10MM 180GR FMJ 50/1000

Description

Sellier & Bellot’s 10mm Auto 180-grain FMJ is a straightforward range load built for shooters who put significant round counts downrange and want consistent, predictable behavior from their pistol. The Full Metal Jacket construction means the lead core is fully encased in a metallic jacket, which eliminates barrel leading during extended range sessions and keeps post-session cleaning manageable. The non-expanding bullet profile also makes this load a practical choice for shooters who use the same ammunition for both practice and feeding drills, since FMJ rounds typically cycle through semi-automatic actions with fewer reliability interruptions than soft-point or hollow-point designs.

The 10mm Auto cartridge runs at a substantially higher pressure and velocity than most common pistol rounds, which means felt recoil and muzzle flip will be more pronounced than shooters accustomed to 9mm or .40 S&W will expect. That characteristic is part of why dedicated 10mm shooters tend to treat range time as skill-building rather than casual plinking — this load will reinforce grip discipline and trigger control in a way that lower-pressure cartridges do not. Muzzle velocity is published at 1165 fps with 542 ft-lbs of muzzle energy, giving a useful reference point when comparing loads or evaluating suitability for a particular barrel length or suppressor host. Brass cases and Boxer priming make spent brass worth collecting if you reload. Sellier & Bellot produces this ammunition in the Czech Republic and has manufactured commercial and military ammunition for well over a century. Available in boxes of 50 or by the case of 1,000 rounds.
