Fiochi 223... anyone with experience?

[SDP]

Does anyone have any experience with Fiochi 223 ammo?

I have used the 9mm and was happy. I dont want to drop some good cash on 1,000 rds if it isnt any good....

Whats the going price of it? I just shipped back 400 rounds of the Lacquer coated ammo back to Wolf, and was thinking of using this stuff as the replacement ammo. My Wolf was $3.95/box.

I havent looked to hard, but I am finding it for 284/1000. It is brass cased, boxer primed. I will reload it. Any of the brassed cased stuff is more than steel cased.

i've shot hundreds of rounds of Fiochi 223, no probs at all.

cost me $250/1000+tax in Florida (B&H GUn Rack, Merrit Island, a couple months ago)

a friend of mine says Fiochi shotgun shells are dirty FWIW.

I think I'd rather stick with Georgia Arms ammo for $230/1000. I've been using their 55gr FMJ for range ammo with zero problems and good accuracy.

Is Georgia Arms brass cased and boxer primed??

Yes. Their pricing used to be even better, but they're becoming more in demand & their business is growing. Still though, I think they have some of the best pricing around. It works well for me because I simply hit a gun show when I need ammo & it saves on the shipping costs. But their shipping is not too bad either.
