Looking for cheap-but-good ball ammo for practice in my G42.
I bought a box of "Fiocchi .380 Auto FMJ Training Dynamics, 95 gr/960 fps." "380AP"
Headstamp is "G.F.L. 380 Auto"
Out of 50 rds, 3 were a little tight in my shell checker but all were still loose enough to plunk in my G42 barrel.
Average of 10 shots chrono'd at 907 fps, a little slower than they say on the box but still slightly faster than any other 95 gr I tried.
Accuracy seemed slightly better than the PMC I have been using, no malfunctions in 50 rds.
Does anyone else have experience with this ammo? I'm thinking of buying a case or two, prices are good right now.
BTW, I had been using new manufacture Freedom Munitions/LAX Ammo (same ammo) 100 gr plated and liked it, but my latest batch are giving me 1-2 stovepipes or failures to extract in each magazine in a gun that still works with everything else and had gone 5k rds without any malfunctions
