Thanks Mr. Camp.

First I'd heard of it. I have a case, but I guess it predates the recall stuff.

I called their (Fiochhi) offices late last night and left a message. Just got off the phone with a Fiochhi person who was extremely nice and helpful.

She is sending a Fed-Ex prepaid tag. All I have to do is put it in a box and call Fed-Ex for pick-up.

The ammo will be replaced and shipped at no expense.

While I regret the ammo problem, it's nice to see a company doing all it can to take care of the situation in addition to making it easy for the consumer.

Speaks well for the company. Mistakes are going to happen. It's how they're handled that counts.

Thanks for the headsup. I just checked mine. Fortunately my lot number is lower than the ones listed.

I received my pre-paid Fed-Ex label this morning. I'll drop off the package this afternoon on the way to the range.

I'll let yall know how long it takes to get new ammo.

So far, the Fiocchi company is doing what it says it will do. I'll see if that lasts.

Regards,

Steve

Fiocchi has listed 4509225 in their recall

I have a couple boxes as shown. Looks like
4500225 to me.
What do you guys think?

The recall was for imported ammo.

The box has USA on front and Made in Italy on back ????????
The headstamp says USA

Looks like a "nine" to me. I wouldn't take a chance, but it's your gun.

Received my ammo from Fiochhi today. A little extra for my trouble.

Good job, Fiochhi! I'll continue to buy your ammo for your excellent customer service and prompt response.

I wish everyone would do business this way.

Steve

I received the prepaid mailer from Fiocchi. It is for FED EX ground. Closest drop off is thirty miles away. Fed Ex Express(AIR) drop off at the end of my block but they won't take it.
I've asked them to mail me prepaid UPS mailer. It's only three miles for UPS dropoff.

Fiocchi receved my recalled ammo on May 10

I still havn't received replacement boxes.
I have talked to Mr Fiocchi. Said don't worry I will get them

I think the reason I got my replacement ammo within a week, is after the alert posted here, I immediately called Fiocchi and sent it off two days later when I got the free Fed-Ex label. I probably got in before the big rush.

I do believe you'll get your ammo--I'd said that they've been getting hammered lately.

Regards,

Steve
