Description
Sellier & Bellot Rifle ammunition in .303 British (part no. SB303C) loads a 180-grain soft point bullet, keeping a classic military surplus cartridge fed for shooters who still own and shoot Lee-Enfield and other .303-chambered rifles. Sellier & Bellot is one of the few major manufacturers still producing fresh commercial .303 British ammunition, an increasingly hard cartridge to find compared to more common modern rifle rounds. The soft point profile expands on impact, unlike a full metal jacket, making this a load capable of both range shooting and hunting. For owners of a .303 British rifle who need a dependable, currently produced load, this rifle ammunition keeps that classic caliber shootable.
