Anyone have any experience with the 158 gr. sellier bellot soft points? Do they expand well? How is the brass? Thanks

if you read all the official reports from law enforcement,bullet expansion in human bodies is iffy at best.don't matter if JHP or SP. S&B brass goes thru periods of being great to being worthless. jwr

I've reloaded the Brass without a problem. It seems as good as most and maybe a little stronger than Remington Brass.

Actually, good JHP ammo expands very frequently in LE shootings today. But SP seldom expands even when driven at magnum speeds. Yes, it can happen. But bet against it.
