Any experience with Fiocchi primers

No problems whatsoever in my Dillons. I also use with a RCBS bench mounted primer seater..no problems. Only primer I don't use in progressive presses is Federal...and they may work fine. I don't want to find out

Which Dillon are you running, neither of my 650s will feed them with any reliability.
 
I use 2-750s and a 550c. I recently bought one of the Frankford Arsenal X-10 presses. I'll try them out in it sometime soon. But don't have too many of those Fiocchi left.
 
I've run through thousands of Fiocchi shotshells in Argentina, presumably using Fiocchi primers. Never had a misfire in my doubles, nor did any fellow hunters using automatics. When we hunted ducks and geese, they killed like the hammer of Thor compared to the steel shot junk in the U.S., a pleasant surprise after hearing all the dribble about cheap Fiocchi ammunition.

This makes some sense then, the primer system in the 650 is similar to a revolver cylinder where for the 750 they changed back to something much more like the 550 or SDB where it's just handling one primer at a time. I do think the primer system on the 650 is it's weakest feature.
 
I've used them many times with no issue
Helps me conserve my "precious" federal primers
If I were to expect an issue from any manufacturer it would be Winchester and I don't believe I've ever had a bad primer from them either .
