    Sellier & Bellot 180gr FMJ

    Hi first question on this forum. I’m looking st trying the S&B 180gr FMJ 303 ammo. I can’t gind any info as the whether the projectiles are Boat tail or Flat Base. Has any one pulled a round apart to see? My old rifle doesn’t like Boat tail ammo.

    Boat Tail

    Sierra does a flat base 180gr soft point which some find accurate in the 303

    He said he doesn't want boat tail because his rifle doesn't like them

    They also have a 150 grs. soft point flat base. Code no. 2939 and also 123 grs. (2907 and 2943), FMJ flat base and soft point flat base respectively. 2940 is soft point flat base 180 grs. There is all you may need.
