Fiocchi Ammo For Sale
Overview of Fiocchi Ammo
Founded in 1876 by Giulio Fiocchi in Lecco, Italy, Fiocchi Ammunition has grown into one of the most respected names in the industry. Giulio, an accountant by trade, recognized an opportunity when sent to collect on a loan from a struggling black powder and musket manufacturer. Convincing his brother Giacomo to partner with him, Giulio transformed the business into a leading ammunition manufacturer.
Fiocchi Italy: Early Innovations and Worker Welfare
Fiocchi began by producing reloadable primer cases and transitioned to complete cartridges in the 1890s, embracing new technologies like smokeless powder. The company also became a pioneer in worker welfare, providing affordable housing, nurses, and childcare for employees—initiatives that continue today. During the early 20th century, Fiocchi expanded into ammunition for sporting, hunting, and military use.
Rebuilding After WWII
During World War II, Fiocchi’s factory was seized by German forces and later destroyed by Allied bombing in 1945. Undeterred, the Fiocchi family rebuilt the factory in 1946 without external aid, leveraging modern facilities to produce cutting-edge ammunition. This resilience enabled the company to thrive through the 1950s and 60s, developing partnerships that expanded their global reach.
Fiocchi’s Product Line
Fiocchi produces high-quality ammunition for a wide range of applications, including:
- Shotgun shells: For world-class competitions.
- Centerfire cartridges: For sport and defense.
- Rare collector calibers: Like the .455 Webley.
The company is also known for innovations like Cyalume Chemtracer shotgun shells, the Canned Heat line, and NATO-spec certified ammunition. Fiocchi cartridges have even been used in Olympic victories in Athens (2004) and Beijing (2008).
Fiocchi of America: “Italian by Birth, American by Choice”
In 1983, Carlo Fiocchi, great-grandson of the founder, established Fiocchi of America to meet growing demand in the U.S. By the mid-1980s, a manufacturing plant was built in the Ozarks near Springfield, Missouri. Today, over 75% of the ammunition Fiocchi sells in the U.S. is produced domestically, cementing its reputation as a premium yet accessible brand. Among their most popular domestic offerings is the Fiocchi 9mm 115gr FMJ, a high-volume range round trusted by competitive shooters and everyday range-goers alike. It’s just one option in our deep catalog of Fiocchi 9mm ammo, which spans everything from budget FMJ range fodder to XTP-loaded defensive rounds.
A Legacy of Quality
Fiocchi remains a family-run business, now in its fourth and fifth generations. With a history spanning over 140 years, the company continues to innovate while maintaining its Italian roots and commitment to excellence. Whether for competitive shooting, hunting, or collecting rare calibers, Fiocchi stands out as a trusted name in ammunition.
For varmint and predator hunters, Fiocchi offers high-performance centerfire rifle ammunition including .22-250 ammo, delivering the flat trajectory and accuracy the cartridge is known for.

This ammo has proven to be the most accurate I've found out of a Remy 700 HB with a 1:12 twist. Had almost given up on accuracy with this rifle, but this load yielded 0.7 MOA (100 yds, calm day, off support).

I have bought lots of 1,000 of this ammo 2-3 times. The first lot(s) were good. However, I started getting tons of split case necks about every 10th round with my most recent lot. This was with a 10.5" AR pistol and good quality P-mags. I had my local gunsmith look at the gun, and he couldn't find any issues, so presumably the culprit was the ammo. Not sure if they had some QC issues this year? I haven't written off Fiocci, but I'll probably wait a while until any bad ammo cycles through the market.

I have a bear creek arsenal upper in 223 wild with a 20inch SS slick side charge and man I'm telling you that this stuff shoots 5 shots into 1/2 inch groups all day long, I bought this ammo because it shoots as flat as a 22,250 55 grain bullets do, I've yet to shoot any yotees yet but when I do you guys will be the first to know, I can't wait!!!!!

Could not be happier with the ammo. It does what I hoped it would. For a small framed gun this ammo is the Ritz. Will soon be ordering more. Cannot thank you enough for carrying this caliber for us old guys who love old guns.

I got a good deal in Mesa buying three flats. It shoots well, However I have such a hard time reloading the spent hulls. I find the Winchester AA HS and the Federal Top Gun is much easier. Also I have had the Fiocchi hulls blow in half after about the third or 4th reload. I use the 20/28 and the 572 powder. Don't know if this is a factor, but is my experience!

These rounds did the job required. Was told my shotgun wasn't for skeet or trap shooting. Had no issues firing out of my Rock Island VR80. Had no problems hiting targets. Would definitely purchase again.

Great value and great performance from a reliable brand, significant less recoil than a 3 inch shell that better suits my needs for home defense.
