Is the brass casing on this Sellier & Bellot 7.5x55mm ammunition reloadable?

Yes, this ammunition features non-corrosive Boxer-primed, drawn brass cases that are fully reloadable. This makes it an ideal choice for shooters who like to handload their own ammunition after a day at the range, unlike surplus Berdan-primed options.

Can I use this 7.5x55mm Swiss ammunition in my historic Model 1889 Schmidt-Rubin rifle?

No, this modern factory ammunition generates pressures that are excessive for the earlier 7.5x53.5mm GP90 chamber of the Model 1889 rifle. It is strictly recommended only for later firearms chambered in 7.5x55mm Swiss, such as the K31, K11, and Model 1911 rifles.

What kind of accuracy and trajectory can I expect from the 174-grain FMJ projectile at standard range distances?

This load is engineered to emulate the traditional Swiss military GP11 trajectory, featuring a muzzle velocity of 770 m/s and a high G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.501. It is optimized for 100 m to 300 m service rifle competitions, while retaining strong ballistic performance for extended target engagements up to 600 m.

Are these rounds suitable for hunting medium-to-large game in the Australian bush?

No, this ammunition uses a Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) projectile designed for target shooting and military rifle competitions. Because FMJ bullets do not expand upon impact, they are unsuitable and generally prohibited under state regulations for ethical hunting of medium-to-large game like deer or pigs.

What licensing and regulatory requirements apply when purchasing this ammunition in Australia?

Being centre-fire ammunition, purchase and possession are strictly regulated under state and territory firearms legislation across Australia. Buyers must present an appropriate current firearms licence endorsing the specific calibre, and any transport must comply with local dangerous goods logistics requirements.

7.5x55 Swiss Ammo - Sellier & Bellot V341632

The Sellier & Bellot 7.5x55 Swiss 174 Grain FMJ ammunition (Manufacturer Model: V341632) is a factory-loaded centre-fire cartridge designed for target shooting and historic military rifle service competitions. Built to emulate the traditional Swiss military GP11 loading, this round matches original ballistic profiles with a 174-grain (11.30-gram) Full Metal Jacket projectile leaving the muzzle at 770 m/s with 3,350 Joules of energy. Assembled with drawn, factory-annealed brass and non-corrosive Boxer primers, it offers smooth cycling in straight-pull military bolt actions and provides fully reloadable cases for sport shooters.

Key Features

GP11 Ballistic Profile: Replicates the classic 174-grain Swiss military service load, matching the factory sights and trajectory tables of military-surplus rifles without requiring significant sight adjustments.
High Aerodynamic Efficiency: Features a G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.501 (G7 BC of 0.253), maintaining trajectory consistency over competition target ranges from 100 to 300 metres, with effective reach up to 800 metres.
Boxer-Primed Brass Cases: Manufactured with reloadable, non-corrosive Boxer-primed brass cases, offering an easily reloadable alternative to surplus Berdan-primed ammunition.
Consistent Action Feeding: Uniform FMJ bullet geometry (Bullet No. 2947) and annealed cartridge walls support reliable feeding and extraction in military-pattern straight-pull bolt actions.
Standard Range Packaging: Supplied in 50-round boxes, weighing approximately 1.36 kg per box for convenient range logistics.

Who is the S&B Sellier & Bellot 7.5x55 Swiss 174 Grain Fmj Ammo 50 Rd for?

Historic service rifle competitors — Replicates traditional GP11 service trajectories with a 174-grain projectile at 770 m/s and a 0.501 G1 ballistic coefficient, allowing this 7.5x55mm Swiss rifle ammunition to align with original factory iron sight graduations on Schmidt-Rubin Model 1911 and K31 rifles.
Target handloaders — Supplies Boxer-primed, drawn brass cartridge cases in 7.5x55mm Swiss rifle ammunition that generate 3,350 Joules of muzzle energy while providing reusable brass hulls that bypass the reloading difficulties of surplus Berdan primers.

Less suitable for: Owners of earlier Schmidt-Rubin Model 1889 rifles chambered in 7.5x53.5mm Swiss (GP90), which cannot withstand the higher modern operating pressures of GP11-profile cartridges, or hunters seeking game ammunition, who require an expanding soft point projectile rather than non-expanding Full Metal Jacket bullets.
