Since you are in contact, Please-
ask him if he will share codes or lot numbers so we can sort this out!

Or suggest they even have a recall on the under power ammo, it is hurting their reputation and will eventually affect all their sales.

The rep I spoke with was going to replace the boxes I'm returning. He was seeking information from the plant in Italy (said all 7.65 is made in the same location) in order to try to provide replacement loads close to the four year old loads that work well in my Luger. I assume he will be using the lot numbers I provided to attempt this. I told him frankly that this situation isn't exactly boosting my confidence in Fiocchi.

Will you share the good and not good lot numbers with us?

I had good results with "black box" 93 gr. JSP with these #s:
52100300 2044
CIP 002 0480
