Fiocchi vs Winchester small pistol primers

[ARMAGEDON]

Hi there everyone.    I have a Tanfoglio Stock II.   Titan hammer, EGD Medium, Bolo, the extended firing pin from PD and the firing pin spring from PD.   

 

I know that Federal small pistol primers are heaven on earth but hard to find.   To be honest i don't want to depend on Federal primers to shoot my gun on USPSA.   I use SNS Casting 135gr coated bullets with 3.6 of Tite Group.    Just a question.   Many friends are using Fiocchi small pistol primers and they keep saying that they are way softer than Winchester.   I have never use them.   Has anyone tried here Fiocchi?

 

When i have Federal i use 13lb from PD but for Winchester i use EGD medium.    Any thoughts on Fiocchi?

 

Thanks

I'm lighting Fiocchis off with a 12lb PD spring if that helps.

Fiocchi SPP are approx 5% harder than Federal 100 SPP. They are somewhat easier to seat than Federals.

I haven't had any issue with an 11.5 lb springed Shadow if they're fully seated.

On my Tanfoglio stock 3 extreme i have EG light firing spring,EG hammer medium spring,EG longer firing pin,i am using Fiocchi primers and i still have light primers.It can be really frustrating.To be honest i don't now what else to do to be 100%.

I have used S&W rebound springs as hammerspring, they are to long so you have to cut them to lenght (even a bit longer)
