Sellier & Bellot 7.62x54R ammunition delivers reliable, proven performance for shooters of Mosin-Nagants, SVT-40s, and other rifles chambered in this classic rimmed cartridge. Built on decades of Eastern European ammunition manufacturing expertise, S&B loads are a trusted choice for hunters and shooters who want consistent, affordable centerfire rifle ammo without the premium price tag. Each box contains 20 rounds of 174-grain hollow point boat tail ammunition—a quality option for shooters who want expansion and consistent flight characteristics downrange.

The 174-grain hollow point boat tail projectile design means you get both controlled expansion for hunting applications and the aerodynamic benefits of a boat tail profile. Sellier & Bellot ammunition has earned a solid reputation across North America for reliability and consistent accuracy, making it a sensible pick whether you're zeroing an old military rifle, practicing at the range, or pursuing game. The hollow point configuration distinguishes this load from standard ball ammo, giving you hunting-appropriate terminal performance in a cartridge that's already known for substantial downrange energy.

Because 7.62x54R rimmed ammunition isn't as widely produced as modern centerfire rounds, having a known-reliable source like Sellier & Bellot in your supply chain matters. These 20-round boxes stack neatly and give you flexibility to stock up without committing to bulk quantities. Whether you're a Mosin collector, a historical rifle enthusiast, or someone who appreciates the ballistics and power of this venerable cartridge, this ammunition represents a straightforward, quality-focused option.
