Anyone ever used these? Looking at picking up a case, but I'm a little scared of what I don't know...

I've shot Flochi in the past and didn't like the way they patterned through the Benelli. I crippled a lot of birds with their shells. I'll never shoot them again, but that's just me.
Others might have a different outlook on the shells and might even love them.

I've never shot them. I do shoot Fiocchi little rhino target loads though and they are great.

Does Joe Biden really shoot Fiocchi? That actually may be a problem for me.

You huys are right, It must be the bead on the barrel. Why didn't I think about that before!? I'll take the bead off and see how it does. Will C if it works out.

Joe Biden says take the bead off and you can shoot a intruder more accurately

There is nothing wrong with the Fiocchi Speed Steel. They require less choke and worked great in the Berettas and Brownings I used them in. I use the 2 3/4" #7 steel for dove and quail. The shot isn't plated but is as round as any out there and the rest of the components are top notch.
