Hollow points are rarely affordable enough to buy by the thousand, but Sellier and Bellot’s 40 S&W JHP is priced close to range ammo. This listing is Sellier and Bellot 40 S&W 180 grain jacketed hollow point ammo, MPN SB40C, sold as a 1,000 round case for shooters who want to practice extensively with an expanding bullet.
Sellier and Bellot rates this load at 974 fps with 379 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. The 180 grain jacketed hollow point is the heavy, traditional 40 S&W weight, giving a push rather than a snap in recoil. A hollow point is designed to expand and stay in the target, which is why it is preferred for self defense over full metal jacket. Training with a hollow point also confirms that your pistol feeds this bullet profile reliably, which matters before you trust it at home or on your belt.
This ammunition fits pistols chambered in 40 S&W, including the Glock 22, 23, and 27, Smith and Wesson M&P40 and Shield, SIG Sauer P226, P229, and P320, Springfield XD and XD-M, Beretta PX4, CZ 75 in 40, and Heckler and Koch VP40. A common question is whether a budget JHP is suitable for carry. Many shooters use it for home defense and practice, while choosing a bonded premium load for carry, but any reliable hollow point is better than FMJ. Another common question is whether this load is +P. It is standard pressure.
Sellier and Bellot SB40C is new production ammunition, not reloads, made in the Czech Republic. Each round uses a reloadable brass case with a boxer primer and non-corrosive priming. This case ships as 20 boxes of 50 rounds for a total of 1,000 rounds from one lot, which supports extensive practice and a long-term supply for home defense. Rotate older rounds into practice to keep your defensive supply fresh.
