The Sellier & Bellot .32 S&W Long 100 Grain LFN ammunition (Model V311312) is engineered for target shooting, plinking, and formal match training. Loaded with a 100-grain (6.50 g) Lead Flat Nose bullet, this ammunition delivers a muzzle velocity of 260 m/s (approx. 853 fps) and a muzzle energy of 220 Joules (approx. 162 ft-lbs). The flat-nose profile punches crisp, clean holes in paper targets to simplify scoring, while the mild impulse keeps muzzle flip low across extended shooting strings. Built with Boxer-primed, non-corrosive brass cases, each factory round measures 32.20 mm in total length and supports subsequent handloading.

Key Features

• Clean-Punching Bullet Profile: The 100-grain Lead Flat Nose (LFN) projectile cuts well-defined edges in paper targets for straightforward score verification.
• Mild Recoil Characteristics: Generates 220 Joules of muzzle energy to minimise hand fatigue and allow quick sight reacquisition between shots.
• Reloadable Components: Assembled with non-corrosive Boxer primers and quality brass cases suitable for repeated reloading.
• Broad Calibre Compatibility: Chambers reliably in .32 S&W Long firearms, as well as revolvers chambered for .32 H&R Magnum and .327 Federal Magnum.

Who is the S&B Sellier & Bellot 32 S&W Long 100 Grain Lfn Ammo 50 Rd for?

• ISSF 25m centre-fire match shooters — requires consistent paper-cutting accuracy and low recoil, which this .32 S&W Long ammunition delivers through a 100-grain Lead Flat Nose projectile travelling at 260 m/s to preserve sight alignment across rapid strings.
• Recreational target shooters using vintage or modern .32-calibre wheelguns — benefits from mild chamber pressures and a factory-rated muzzle energy of 220 Joules, offering comfortable range shooting in older revolvers chambered for .32 S&W Long.

Less suitable for: Target shooting beyond 50 m due to a steep trajectory drop of -53.6 cm at 100 m, where higher-velocity rifle cartridges are better suited, or medium to large game hunting due to a low 260 m/s velocity and non-expanding lead bullet, where higher-energy cartridges with controlled-expansion projectiles are required.
