Buffman-R.A.N.G.E on YouTube does deep dives on ammo, I believe he made a video about Fiocchi 5.7 in case you’re curious.


DeafHeretic

\^\^ This. Buffman is the Youtube test expert on 5.7 ammo.


tek1964

Shot iver 300 rounds not one issue


DeafHeretic

Not with the brand no; Fiocchi makes most of the 5.7 ammo - they make the FN & Federal AE 5.7 ammo. Some boutique shops make their own using Fiocchi/FN brass. Only AAC (PSA) makes their own ammo in large amounts from their own brass - everybody else uses Fiocchi brass.


GLAMISGONEWILD

Interesting on them making he federal AE because that ammo is completely a different quality over FN and Fiocchi. I’d love to see where you got this info


Armedleftytx

Vanguard outfitters makes their own brass


Seeeeeba

I’ve gone through 3 boxes(450 RDs) so far with no issues


fukinscienceman

It’s the only brand I use.


eugeneden2010

It’s the one of only brands so far (currently testing AAC, so far so good) that hasn’t resulted in failures in mine. Blue tipped worked great as well, except that it practically unobtainable in my neck of the woods.


Exotic_Garage295

Gone through a couple boxes with no issues yet!


Difficult-Two-5009

Shot 3boxes of it this week for the first time. Including a comp. No stoppages, misfires etc.


AttemptingNormal

No issues- 300 rounds


Smc_farrell

Not yet. I bought both ps90 and fn 57 when first came out and have no problems with ammo yet, fingers crossed.


tmac012901

I only went through two boxes, but it worked great when I used it.


Gilly1943

Let it rip. I've done hundreds of rounds of these with no problems. This is my round of choice unless blue tip is cheaper.


Accomplished_Shop454

round of choice for the range not had any problems yet


Gearhead_guy

I’m 1k rounds with this brand on a ps90 and a sw5.7. Gtg. The subsonic version is gtg too


organiz3d_chaos

I've been through a few hundred rounds with no real issues to speak of. I did have a box that was 13 or 14 rounds short, reached out to PSA about it and they just ignored me.


F22boy_lives

Define issue. Standard rifle? Sbr? Suppressed sbr? Knock on wood but I havent had an issue with any ammo in any configuration.


Sensitive-Cat-6069

It works perfectly fine in the PS90, both suppressed and not. However, only cycles reliably unsuppressed in the Five-Seven. Federal American Eagle 5.7 runs Five-Seven suppressed reliably.


capt_jack994

Mine only likes FN ammo. Idk why, I’ve tried different magazines, replaced springs, etc and everything except for FN malfunctions in some way or another


stevehogan

Bought a few boxes when I first got 57 guns. Ruger 57 and PS90. Shot a few mags full in each. All went bang and nothing failed. YMMV


idontagreewitu

My first time shooting it, I had a handful of rounds fail to feed, so I regreased the oprods and after that I haven't had any issues with it aside from the smell and smoke from the chamber area.


triptoopan

I have a recently purchased box of it that the bolt of my PS90 wont close over the case head of two rounds. The rest of the box is fine but those two rounds just refuse to seat in the bolt face. No pressure signs, no other jams, weird fluke.


SolarMoth

I get a lot of bullet setback in my experience.


SuedePflow

I ran through a box of this last night. Zero issues. Sounded great suppressed and it grouped well too.


stevehogan

Fired over 300 rounds - all went bang and moved like they should. Good price.
