Brass Case • FMJ
Solved from this product's advertised 1280 fps, 115gr bullet and G1 BC 0.116, with the sight 0.5" over the bore at standard conditions. Compare every zero for 9mm Luger, or read Pistol Red Dot: 10-Yard vs 25-Yard Zero.
How to read it: filled circles are the near and far zero, where the bullet's path crosses the line of sight;the triangle is the peak (max ordinate). The shaded band is the 4" vital zone, ±2" either side of the line of sight. The dashed line marks the edge of the hold-dead-on window. The chart is zoomed to where the zero matters; the tables below run to 100 yards.

Product Overview
Sellier & Bellot's 9mm 115-grain FMJ is a full metal jacket load made for range and match shooting. Its bullet weighs the same 115 grains as the ball loads it is compared with and is loaded a long way faster. Muzzle velocity is 1,280 fps for 418 ft-lbs.
Zeroed at 25 yards it sits 1.1 inches low at 50, a tenth of an inch flatter than Fiocchi Training Dynamics 115-grain. Nothing else compared gets past 1,200 fps, and nothing else holds more than 1,087 fps at the 50-yard line. Estimated recoil in a compact pistol is 4.8 ft-lbs, the stiffest of the loads compared.
If you're cross-shopping, Fiocchi Training Dynamics 115-grain is 80 fps slower at 1,200 fps. ZSR 115-grain sits 132 fps back at 1,148 fps and 336 ft-lbs.
- 50 ft-lbs more at the muzzle than Fiocchi Training Dynamics 115-grain
- 313 ft-lbs left at 50 yards, 40 more than Magtech 115-grain
- 1,106 fps at 50 yards, 65 faster than ZSR 115-grain at the same distance
- About 21 percent more estimated recoil than ZSR 115-grain in the same pistol
- Supersonic at the muzzle, so a suppressed pistol still gets a sonic crack
