« on: March 06, 2007, 10:48:59 AM »
just went to the local gun shop to get some .223 ammo, since all I can seem to find everywhere else is the expensive stuff.......ended up with a 50 pack of Fiocchi 55gr fmj for $12.60......anyone ever used these rounds...box says they use hornoday bullets.......

I haven't used the particular load you purchased but I have shot a lot of Fiocchi ammo over the years mainly handgun stuff and I buy their shotgun ammo by the case.  It is top shelf ammo and I have always had really good results from it, it is accurate, clean, and dependable.  The shotshell ammo patterns better than any currently available shotshell load I have ever shot in my guns, I shoot the 12 gauge 3 1/4 dram 1 1/4oz 7 1/2 load.  Looks like their 223 ammo is cheap at todays prices.  Let us know how it works out for you.

I bought some 125gr 9mm Fiocchi made in Europe and loved the stuff so I bought some 22LR Fiocchi and was surprised to find it was made in Mexico.
