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 particular ammo has significantly jumped in price. Now that I am shooting it accurately from 5 to 30 yards l will slow down on running it through my 158 gr Hp. Great hard hitting energy transfer.

Great for My Kel-tec 50 round extended pistol. Perfect aim and shot projection, when the bullet hits the target at the range. Has a great propulsion for the 40- grain weight and noise reduction, Very good shotshells.

I’m used to military rifles not pistols. I always fire any pistol low/left. Bought a FN 5.7 last month. This ammo doesn’t double feed. We’ve fired easily 500rds without cleaning the FN and there hasn’t been one issue! More practice! Thankyou for reading!
