Fiocchi ammo
Has anyone shot fiocchi through their sigma? I just got 2 boxes of Fiocchi 9mm 115gr, but after reading a bit online Ive seen that its loaded hotter than most standard pressure ammo. So is it safe to use?

I have shot a lot of Fiocchi in both 9mm and 45acp. For 9mm it seems to be loaded hotter than other 115gr but you should not have any issue in shooting it in your Sigma.

It is no hotter than NATO Spec., is it? NATO Speck ammo should be safe to shoot. If not, than the pistol needs to be replaced with a better quality one.

Shoot away. The brass reloads go also.

I have shot a fair amount of it, mostly in odd-ball calibers. I have found it to be of good quality and would have no qualms about using it.

It'll handle it. It will also handle NATO rounds...at least I hope so, or else the 200,000 or so SW9VEs we just sent to the Afganistan police force will be pretty useless.
