I bought a box of Sellier & Bellot .357 sig ammo a few weeks ago at Cabelas as it was on sale. only shot 25 rounds of the 50 in my Sig 239 and had 4 failure to feed and 2 dud rounds where the primer was punched but no bang. pretty bad numbers for only 25 rounds. thought it might be something with the gun/magazine but shot winchester white box with out any issues with the gun or magazine. Don't know if anyone else has had problems with this ammo?

Yes, S&B is not known for being top quality ammo. Plus, they are very dirty. What's funny is on occasion I hear my prices on ammo are higher than the Tula, S&B, or some other foreign, crappy ammo. I just laugh!

Interesting, wonder if that has anything to do with the different manufacturing lines within the company. I ran several boxes of 380, 9mm, & 40sw in last several years, testing semi's more than ammo and had no issues. Maybe they have black Thursdays.

I loved my S&B. It functions flawlessly in my 32 and 35 with a 357 sig barrel

I've shot tons of this stuff in 9mm, 38spl and .357 magnum. Never had a sigle problem
