Sellier & Bellot 7x57mm rifle ammunition (brand part no. SB757B) loads a 140-grain semi-jacketed soft point bullet at a rated 2651 fps, giving owners of classic 7mm Mauser rifles a dependable, accurate hunting round.

It is a solid choice for hunters running vintage Mausers or modern rifles chambered for the classic cartridge.
