sellier and bellot 9mm help

[hori]

I have about 500 rds of this 9mm ammo I bought 15 years ago in bulk 1000 order. It`s boxer primed non corrosive. I don`t know the bullet weight as it`s not listed on any packages. Anybody ever use this stuff before. Could this be reloaded?

Since it is boxer primed and brass cased it can be reloaded. As the for bullet weight I am guessing it is 124 grain as that is the more common weight in Europe...

Only problem with this ammo is the nickle plated bullets can spark on the backstop. If you keep the range clean, no worrys. If it's a garbage dump with target paper and spent powder ahead of the backstop, bring a fire extinguisher.

I had a bunch of this stuff as well. I had a lot of problems with priming these cases. I got rid of them as they slowed me down reloading.

my advise shoot what you have and ##### the brass.

did you find it a bit under powered?

It looks like the steel jacketed stuff sold back in the 70's/80's.

It flunks the magnet test, but when I polished the tips, there was copper underneath.
