Fiocchi Hyperformance 5.7x28mm 35gr Frangible Ammo

Description

The Fiocchi Hyperformance line delivers what you need from a specialized frangible load: solid performance without the ricochet concerns that come with traditional rounds on steel targets. Built with a 35-grain copper core and copper jacket, each round features a polymer tip that cycles reliably through all 5.7x28mm platforms. The lead-free construction rounds out a package designed specifically for shooters who train in confined spaces or need to minimize over-penetration.

What Makes This Frangible Load Stand Out

Frangible ammunition works differently than conventional bullets. When the round impacts a hard surface, it breaks apart into small fragments rather than ricocheting or creating spall hazards. For indoor ranges with steel targets, this is a game-changer. You get to train seriously without constantly watching for bouncebacks. At 1750 fps muzzle velocity with 238 foot-pounds of energy, the Fiocchi Hyperformance 35gr still delivers the speed and trajectory the 5.7x28mm is known for, just without the liability issues.

Fiocchi's Track Record in 5.7x28mm

Fiocchi didn't just jump into the 5.7x28mm market with a generic frangible round. The company has been manufacturing quality ammunition since 1876, and that experience shows in how they engineered this load. The polymer tip prevents feeding issues while the jacketed frangible design handles expansion reliably. Users consistently report good accuracy from these rounds, and the brass cases are reloadable if you want to stretch your dollar further down the line.

When You'd Want This Load

These rounds make sense if you're running drills at an indoor range, doing tactical training where ricochet safety matters, or working with a facility that requires frangible ammunition. The 5.7x28mm's low recoil and high capacity already make it appealing for training and accuracy work. Pair that with rounds that won't bounce around unpredictably, and you've got a practical setup.
