Fiocchi Issues

I, so far, have not found any problems with off center flash holes when reloading Fiocchi brass. I have quite a large amount of this brass, and I will definitely watch for it.....thanks for the heads up.

I have also noticed the "loose" headspace with the new ammo. After firing, this is corrected and put in spec with a good/correct sizing die, but it does make one a bit concerned. I find the amount of headspace to be a bit more in my Lugers than in my BHP with a 30 Luger Bar-Sto bbl. I am assuming that the Bar-Sto bbl is at minimum chamber tolerances like they usually are, compared to the Lugers being more generous
