It's the same as Fiocchi, but Fiocchi munition in Europe is different than the stuff they market in the US. The Fiocchi in Europe is loaded a little hotter; I have no proof of this, but I have noted on their euro website vs. the US website that they have different types of ammo for the same caliber/cartridge. I've fired their .45 ACP, .38 spl, .357 Magnum and 9x19 stuff, and they produce quite a bit of more noticeble recoil in each of those cartridges. I believe they load down a little for the US market, probably for liability reasons. In any event, it's high quality, reliable and good munition. I use that 158gr SJSP for hunting; it is very good.
