Solved from this product's advertised 1181 fps, 124gr bullet and G1 BC 0.152, 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 Luger 124-grain FMJ is a full metal jacket load made for range and match use. Its 1,181 fps matches Norma Range & Training 124-grain, and its 384 ft-lbs is a shade more. Only Winchester NATO 124-grain is quicker among the loads compared.
Zeroed at 25 yards it is 1.2 inches low at 50, where it holds 1,070 fps with 316 ft-lbs. Estimated recoil in a compact pistol is 4.9 ft-lbs.
If you're cross-shopping, Winchester NATO 124-grain is 19 fps faster at 1,200 fps with 396 ft-lbs. Federal American Eagle 124-grain is 31 fps slower, at 1,150 fps and 364 ft-lbs. Speer Lawman 124-grain is the mild end at 1,090 fps.
- 42 ft-lbs over Aguila 124-grain at the muzzle
- Standard pressure, where Winchester NATO 124-grain is loaded above standard 9mm and needs a pistol rated for it
- Keeps more energy at 50 yards than Norma Range & Training 124-grain, on the same muzzle velocity
- About 15 percent more estimated recoil than Speer Lawman 124-grain in the same pistol
- Supersonic at the muzzle, so a suppressed pistol still gets a sonic crack
