This 1000-round case consisting of twenty 50-round boxes will keep you and your gun firing until your barrel overheats! The load possesses ballistic characteristics similar to that of M193 ball, propelling a 55-grain full metal jacket at 3,240 feet per second.

Detailed Analysis:

What Shooters Praise (The Pros)

Reliability

The overwhelming majority of users—many with several thousand rounds fired—report zero misfires, jams, or failures to feed/eject in both ARs and AR pistols. A small minority experienced extraction or firing issues in some bolt-action rifles (Howa, Remington 783), but re-firing the ammo in an AR typically resolved the issue.

Performance

Praised for producing tight groups and being both accurate and consistent, even at extended ranges (100–600 yards). Several users found it cleaner and more accurate than other popular brands (PMC, Federal, UMC). Performance holds up during intensive classes and suppressed firing sessions.

Bargain

Strong value is repeatedly cited, especially in bulk purchases. Shipping is noted as fast and reliable. While a few users feel the price could be slightly better, most agree the cost reflects the quality provided.

What to Know (The Nuances)

- Generally considered cleaner than comparable brands, with most users reporting minimal residue and easy post-session cleanup. A few did find it a bit dirty under certain conditions.
- Brass-cased; praised for reloadability, though one report mentions slightly tighter primer pockets that may require attention with non-standard primers.
- Packaged neatly in 50-round boxes for easy handling at the range.
- Functions exceptionally well in AR-platform rifles; occasional cycling or ejection concerns may arise in specific bolt-action models.
- Some slight discoloration due to heat-treating is normal and noted as a quality indicator.

Conclusion

Fiocchi .223 55gr FMJ stands out as a top pick for shooters seeking reliable, accurate, and clean ammunition for range practice, training, and even extended courses. While the ammo performs best in AR-platform rifles, buyers using bolt-action models should verify compatibility. Its combination of performance and value makes it easy to recommend for anyone prioritizing consistency and bulk affordability.

A: Hi. Thanks for reaching out to us here at BulkAmmo.com. Each round has very specific specs and each manufacturer will have their acceptable tolerances that fall within these specs. There are rare instances where the internal tolerances of the rifle chamber to not work well with a particular brand of ammo. It doesn't mean that either the rifle or the ammo is bad, it only means that they are incompatible together. Let me know if I can assist further in any way. Ronnie

A: That designation is part of Fiocchi's stock numbering system for their ammo. I am sure it has some internal meaning to them, but it could be anything from packaging to propellant. Sorry I can't help with this one.

A: Hello Mike, Fiocchi ammunition is manufactured in their plant in Italy. According to Fiocchi, the muzzle velocity of this specific round is listed at 3240 fps.

A: Hello George, This .223 ammunition does not have the evidence of the annealing process. For presentation purposes, the manufacturers polish off the evidence of annealing on commercial .223 rounds. 5.56x45 NATO ammunition, per contract requirements will have the physical evidence from the annealing process so that inspectors can confirm it meets specification.

A: Hello Mike, This Fiocchi ammunition is loaded with a copper coated, lead core bullet and does not contain any steel.

A: Hello Mark! These rounds feature a brass case loaded with a copper coated, lead core bullet. They will not attract a magnet.

A: Hello Will, These 55gr. FMJ rounds by Fiocchi in .223 will function great in a SCAR 16 as long as it is chambered in .223 or 5.56. These rounds make excellent target rounds.

A: This .223 Remington ammo from Fiocchi is reloadable, though all of the components, including the brass, are factory new. Fiocchi uses the traditional boxer primers and all components are non corrosive.
