Title: FIOCCHI
Post by: dlquinn on February 24, 2012, 04:45:03 PM
Anyone have feedback on this shell from Fiocchi?

12ga 3" 1 3/4oz Nickel Plated #5 shot

I tested that shell in #6 and they didnt do all that well.  90s in the 10" at 40yds was about the best.  It's an unbuffered load, which kills it when compared to other factory offerings such as Winchester.

3-½. 2oz #6's patterned real nice outa my 835. Shot a nice Tom in NY. a few years back at 40 paces and I had to run him down.  :TooFunny: He almost got away.

I like their 2-3/4" 1-3/8oz #5 load in my Rem 1100 with a .690 fixed full choke

I agree.

Now the 20Ga loads shoot great.
