Just picked up some Fiocchi .204 40gr ammo to try out... As soon as this snow goes and I can get to my range, I will give it a try. Anyone with info on this ammo? How is the brass for reloading? Any info appreciated...thanks!

Fox, I hope someone answers you. I just bought 800 .223 40 gr Fiocchi & want to buy some 40 gr 204's but would like to know how they shoot first. The 223's shoot real good out of my 20" 1-12 twist custom AR, 5 shots 1 moa. JD

When I first got my .204 I bought 3-400 rounds of Fiocchi ammo. I was shooting sub-.5 moa with a Howa 1500. The 32 gr shot very hot. Some signs of overpressure. The 40 gr was better for me? I am still using the brass, it's good. 3rd or 4th reload. I am using neck sizing die only.

Thanks Bodei for that information... Looks like I'll be saving the Fiocchi brass for future reloads

That could be your antiques if you will have to keep it. :)
