Fiocchi is becoming an increasingly popular product among shooters in the United States. It is precision manufactured with the serious shooter in mind.

The 148 grain Lead Wadcutter bullet is ideal for target shooting since it cuts perfect circles in your paper targets. Some shooters even contend it's a great self defense round due to energy transfer but the jury's still out on that!

This ammunition is new production, non-corrosive, in boxer-primed, reloadable brass cases.

Q: Greetings : I just purchased some of your 148 gr Fiocchi anti-friction coating 38 wad cutter ammo for range use. Site info suggests 750 fps but the chrono comparison you performed for wad cutters (2016?) was 530 fps from 2” barrel. Are these the same round or has Fiocchi improved the velocity of these in the intervening years? Thanks for your research and informative videos, Regards, John

Posted On: 3/18/2024 By: John Daly

A: Thanks for reaching out John! It all boils down to differences in barrel length. Fiocchi recorded this round's 750 fps muzzle velocity with a 5" test barrel; we recorded its 530 fps muzzle velocity with a 2" test barrel. The longer the barrel, the more time the exploding propellant has to exert its energy against the bullet. It's the same reason why you can shoot a spitball faster with a longer straw.

Q: Will the 38 special wadcutters work in a converted 1851 Traditions/Pietta.36 cal.

Posted On: 12/5/2021 By: Brian

A: Thanks for reaching out Brian! If the M1851 is converted to fire 38 Special, then this ammo should function correctly in it.

Q: Feet per second?

A: Yes sir! Muzzle Velocity - 750 fps; Muzzle Energy - 183 ft lbs
