S&b 6.5x55sw 131gr Sp 20/400

Sellier & Bellot 6.5x55 Swedish 131gr soft point ammunition delivers reliable, field-proven performance for hunting and sport shooting applications where European rifle calibers dominate. This 20-round box of S&B 6.5x55SW ammunition represents one of the most versatile rifle cartridges available, offering a balanced combination of velocity, energy retention, and moderate recoil characteristics that have made the 6.5x55 Swedish a mainstay in Scandinavian hunting traditions and competitive rifle circles for over a century.

The 131-grain soft point projectile achieves a muzzle velocity of 2,602 feet per second, generating substantial downrange energy while maintaining trajectory stability at extended distances. Sellier & Bellot's manufacturing standards ensure consistent chamber pressures and reliable ignition across a broad range of rifle actions—from classic military Mausers and M96 Swedish rifles to modern sporting platforms. The soft point construction initiates controlled expansion on impact, making this load suitable for medium to large game while remaining appropriate for target and training applications where velocity consistency matters.

This ammunition appeals to shooters and hunters who operate rifles chambered in 6.5x55 Swedish—a caliber with limited domestic production alternatives in North America. Competitors in vintage military rifle matches, hunters pursuing deer and elk-sized game in temperate climates, and riflemen restoring or maintaining period-correct Swedish service rifles will find Sellier & Bellot's consistent quality essential for reliable function. Each 20-round box provides a practical quantity for range sessions, load testing, or field use without excessive logistics overhead.

The 6.5x55 Swedish occupies a unique position in the rifle cartridge ecosystem—more powerful than intermediate cartridges, more efficient than larger magnum rounds, and historically optimized for moderate-recoil, accurate fire. Shooters transitioning between calibers or experimenting with this classic round benefit from Sellier & Bellot's international reputation for ammunition that performs identically to military and law enforcement specifications without premium pricing.
