Just wondering if anyone has any feed-back on the Fiocchi .223 55gr FMJ brass cased ammo? My main concern is that it will function reliably, and it is not underpowered. Thanks in advance....

It's the last fmj round that Ammunitiontogo has in stock. :confused:

I've never heard anything negative about it though.

I've never had any issues with it. It's something that I pick up quite regularly due to it being made so close, it's all our gun shop carries in .223 as far as general shooting goes.

I've always liked Fiocchi (reliable/inexpensive). I've always hated their dang red primer sealant. Probably a plus if Hurricane Katrina is heading your way, a lot of extra cleaning effort if not.

I kinda like it on pistol ammo. When I reload, there's still so much of it in the brass that my reloads have sealed primers. :)
