I have zero experience with any Fiocchi ammo ( handgun, rifle or scattergun) so I'm asking good, bad or Ok.
Factory quality and brass reloading qualities.
I'm trying to gather factory ammo to acquire brass for a new .204 (actually 3 of them)2 Coopers and a Savage model 12 LRPV
some Hornady available...lots of Fiocchi.
So help a new guy out before I invest time and money on something I should not.
thanks for the help in advance

It is pretty decent stuff. And they load some good bullets. They are plenty serviceable and usually shoot well enough. But only a test in your rifle will tell for certain.
 
Also good luck with cycling AR, only tried FMJ & match stuff.
Seems they were not as clean burning as US main brand stuff.
But they cleaned up just fine in the tumbler..
 
The 50 gr vmax shot well under an inch out of my 223. Killed coyotes real well too. I haven't tried reloading the brass yet though so I can't say how well it works. Pretty good factory ammo IMO especially for the price.

I have had similar experience with the Fiocchi 50gr V-Max 223 load.

I have shot a ton of their shot shells and have had only excellent experiences with them.

I've had great luck with the Fiocchi ammo, it shoots about 3/4" out of my Savage Axis and shot close to 1/2" out of my Savage Precision Carbine when I had it. Best thing is the price. Once in a while you can find the 200 round ammo box for under $100.00.

I'm waiting to see it on sale again and I'll be buying a couple more of those.

That 50 grain Vmax stuff shoots so good in my guns that I would happily shoot it all the time as my only .223 ammo. I bought 20 of the 50 round boxes of it when it was $18 a box on sale. I wished that I bought a truckload. You cant buy the components and load it anywhere near that cheap.

I like to shoot it in my .223 AI to fireform brass. Going to today as a matter of fact.
