I purchased a case of the Nickel plated Fiocchi Golden Pheasant loads in 20 ga. last year. I have had multiple failure to fire shells. I am shooting an older Smith & Wesson model 1000 semi auto. I have shot multiple boxes of target loads and a few other heavier loads with no FTF problems. The problem shells will fire when put back in gun for a second go. I am wondering if I should put a new firing pin in the gun or get rid of the Fiocchi shells? I really felt I had a good thing going with this load as I had shot multiple boxes with good results prior to purchasing the case.
Any thoughts?
