I have found Fiocchi to work perfectly in my Sig P210. I haven't tried PPU. I'm going to drag out my Luger and try also.

Is it generally believed that PPU is better than Fiocchi?

My AE will stove pipe Fiocchi every third or fourth round. Where PPU have never failed to totally eject.

Curl,

PPU is loaded a bit hotter to European Specs.

Fiocchi pistol ammo is loaded here, in the USA, to SAAMI Specs.

SAAMI specs, for this round, are way too low to operate a Luger's action properly. Remember that the 7.65 Luger round was around long before SAAMI even existed. Also remember that many other modernly designed pistols (your Sig for instance) have come and gone since.
