The Sellier & Bellot 7 × 64 SP 140 GRS (Manufacturer Code: V332012) is factory-loaded rifle ammunition designed for hunting medium game. Featuring a 140-grain (9.10-gram) Semi-Jacketed Soft Point projectile with a lead core and a CuZn 10 tombac jacket, this round provides controlled expansion and deep penetration with high weight retention. Tested from a 600 mm barrel, it produces a muzzle velocity of 856 m/s (2,808 fps) and 3,334 Joules (2,459 ft-lb) of muzzle energy. The cartridge utilizes a standard reloadable brass case, a non-corrosive Boxer primer, and operates within C.I.P. service pressure limits (max 4,150 bar). It is compatible with bolt-action, single-shot, and combination rifles chambered specifically for the rimless 7×64mm Brenneke cartridge.

Key Features

• Controlled Expansion Projectile: Combines a lead core with an engineered tombac jacket to deliver uniform mushrooming and reliable terminal energy transfer.
• High-Velocity Trajectory: The 140-grain projectile reaches 856 m/s at the muzzle, providing a flat trajectory suited for moderate-range shooting with a factory Most Recommended Distance (MRD) zero of 165 metres.
• Reloadable Components: Built with factory-new Boxer-primed brass cases and non-corrosive primers for reliable ignition and reloading cycling.
• Downrange Energy: Retains 725 m/s and 2,390 Joules at 100 metres, dropping to 606 m/s and 1,670 Joules at 200 metres.

Who is the S&B Sellier & Bellot 7x64 Brenneke 140 Grain Sp Ammo 20 Rd for?

• Fallow deer and red deer hind hunters — requires the 3,334 Joules of muzzle energy and controlled soft point expansion delivered by this 7x64 Brenneke rifle ammunition to achieve quick-stopping penetration on light-to-medium deer species.
• Wild pig and feral goat hunters in open-field terrain — benefits from the flat-shooting 140-grain projectile travelling at 856 m/s, which simplifies holdover across open paddocks out to the 165-metre recommended zero.

Less suitable for: Target engagements beyond 300 metres, where external ballistics drop steeply (-54.9 cm drop at 300 m with a 100 m zero) due to the moderate 0.231 G1 BC—a high-BC boat-tail polymer-tipped cartridge is better suited. It is also less suitable for game exceeding 100 to 150 kg (such as mature Sambar stags), where a heavier 160-to-175-grain soft point or bonded bullet fits better for deep bone-breaking penetration.
