This 20-round box of Sellier & Bellot .308 Winchester 147gr FMJ ammunition (Sellier & Bellot part no. SB308A) is a 147-grain full metal jacket load. The bullet is a lead core under a metallic jacket, a bullet the maker positions for training and target shooting. Sellier & Bellot lists the load for range and match or competition use, with a non-expanding bullet that does not leave lead in the barrel. Sellier & Bellot publishes 2,789 fps at the muzzle and 2,538 ft-lb of muzzle energy, measured in a 23.5-inch test barrel. Those numbers belong to this 147-grain FMJ load only, which is what separates it from the other .308 Winchester boxes the maker sells.
