Pros:
VERY accurate
VERY low recoil
Note: I think this would be an excellent training round. Recoil, even in a j frame snub, was practically non existent, and accuracy was top notch at 12 yards.
Cons: Ignition reliability issues
NOTE: my model 36 Smith is selective regarding ammo, and seems to favor brands with soft, sensitive primers. I had reliability issues with this particular ammo, about 6 ftfs in 100 rounds, one such would not fire double action at all. May not be a good choice for lightly sprung guns. -

Great ammo for revolver - for those that are shooting a semi-auto - go elsewhere- this is a low powered round .

great for keeping shooting skills up, especially with a snub nose revolver. lots of shooting and little money. very consistent in performance and groups are uniformly equal in size. will buy more!

I too found that this Fiocchi ammo is under powered and would not cycle my S&W Model 52....very disappointing!

This Fiocchi ammo did not fully cycle the slide on my S&W Model 52. The spent shell casing ejected but the next round did not load. Although this ammo did fully function in my Colt Mid-Range without any issues.
