    Experience with Fiocchi ammo

    Any calgunners here ever used Fiocchi 7.62x39 ammo before? I've never used this ammo before so I'm curious as to how it shoots. What are your guys thoughts on this brand of ammo? Is it clean/dirty, etc....?
    By the way, these are brass cased ammo.

    Thanks in advance.

    I shoot alot of it in my saiga. It is quality, accurate ammo and alot cleaner than any steel case ammo I have shot. It is also alot cheaper than many other brass cased 7.62x39 ammo like PMC, Winchester, Remington etc.

        It's good to go. I shoot tons of it in my gp100 and it's very accurate

          I haven't used their 7.62x39 ammo but I have used some of their pistol and shotgun ammo. It always seem to work fine for me.

            Good round for sure. I have used many. No FTF and clean running. I believe they are range safe as well.

              I've shot their .308 in my bolt action and it is very accurate and very clean. No issues here.

                Fiocchi is a major ammo manufacture---I've shot a bunch in 9mm, 45 ACP, 357, etc with no issues---and yeah, it is often cheaper in price...

                  .38 spl, 12ga 00buck, 9 mm all went bang for me. 38 and 9 were pretty clean. Didn't pay to much attention to the cleanliness of the shotgun ammo

                    I have never had any issue with any Fiocci ammo I have tried.

                      Have used the brand but not the caliber. I thought it was good general average ammo. No problems. I do recall not getting any great groups with it though. More for shooting metal targets for a plink sound than seriously trying to hit a bullseye at 100 yards.

                        Never used the 7.62x39.
                        In general, I really like the Fiocchi. The shotgun ammo is clean.
                        The 9mm goes bang every time but once out of 2000 rounds.

                        The one time it didn't go bang:
                        Instead, it went ploop...
                        waited for a hangfire...
                        No hangfire...
                        Racked the slide...
                        the cartridge came out almost intact.
                        The bullet was still seated, the primer was not.

                        No flash hole!

                              Thank you everyone for chiming in. I appreciate the comments/reviews. Now I'm going to pick up some Fiocchi ammo for myself
