I don't like it.
I bought a box of #5 Fiocchi 3" Golden Pheasant 20ga at Dicks about 3 years ago. I wish I bought everything they had. IIRC they were 1 1/4 ounce moving at around 1150fps. They patterned really nice out of my Weatherby and were deadly on the birds. I haven't been able to find any place that carries them or I would be buying more.
Just last week at the range I got about halfway through a box of their FMJ's in my Colt Python, when I ran across a primer only round. This round ended up lodging the bullet in the barrel... damn good thing I wasn't shooting fast, otherwise it could have ended badly!
Now I'm stuck on how to get this round out of the barrel. No way in hell is this thing getting pushed out with a cleaning rod.
If anyone has suggestions, I'm all ears.
