You don’t want to pay to dump sophisticated bullets into a paper target, which is why this round is equipped with the humble 55 grain full metal jacket boat tail projectile. It’s a good bullet, as Fiocchi pays close attention to standardizing the vital component’s weight and dimensions. Its jacket and core are both nonmagnetic. Its jacket is girdled by a toothed cannelure, so recoil won’t knock it out of position. Its solid point profile and boat tail both give rise to satisfactorily little drag.
Fiocchi loads this ammo in the USA. They’re Italian, but they’ve had a factory in Missouri for quite some time. This noncorrosive ammo has Boxer primers and new brass cases. If you’re a handloader, your next batch of handloads can have Fiocchi headstamps!
