When precision and reliable terminal performance matter in the field, choosing the right bullet construction makes all the difference. This load is engineered for hunters and precision shooters who demand predictable expansion, reliable weight retention, and clear tracking after a clean hit.

SELLIER & BELLOT RIFLE is a SemiJacketed Soft Point with a Cutting Edge bullet. The cutting edge locks the jacket and lead core together while also producing a clean entrance wound and distinct easy to follow blood trails. Appropriate for light to medium game, this design balances controlled expansion with deep penetration for ethical, repeatable harvests.

Performance and terminal ballistics

The SemiJacketed Soft Point construction offers a predictable performance envelope: the exposed soft point initiates rapid, controlled expansion while the jacket/Cutting Edge interface maintains core integrity. That cutting edge feature effectively locks the jacket to the lead core, reducing fragmentation and promoting one-piece recovery of weight — crucial for penetration on medium-bodied game and for consistent shot placement effects.

For hunters tracking hits, the clean entrance wound and pronounced blood trails created by this bullet simplify trailing decisions and reduce time spent following a shot. At a street price of $25.99 per box, this load delivers dedicated terminal design without premium markup.
