Anyone here use this brand of factory ammo ??
My friendly LGS guy tells me they won't even stock it any more because of outrageous prices and further increases.

Only their .22LR stuff.
Surely your dealer can order it if you want to try some?

I've shot their pistol ammo over the years, no better or worse than most. I don't have any problems reloading the brass.

Have only shot limited amounts of their rifle ammo but no problems there.

I remember seeking their 223 ammo being very cheap. But i don't know anymore as i never used it.

I have used their 22lr fiochi 300 in my rifle, its supposed to be on par with eley match in consistency. Anyway during testing it shot really consistent, and the tightest groups

When was Norma gear cheap? I don't buy factory loaded ammo but Norma products have always been a premium product.

I saw some Fiocchi 222 on the shelf at one of my locals. I thought it was a 50 pack by the price. Can’t remember the price exactly. But I’m not paying nearly $2 a shot for 222. Ended buying PPU for $16 per 20 (200 rounds) and 100 Lapua brass for $135.
