poor accuracy from Fiocchi .455?

[braun]

I put a box of .455 Webley MKII through my MkII Webley with a 6" MKVI barrel, and was surprised at the poor accuracy. I was lucky to put 6 bullets in a 12" circle at 10 yards.

Now I'm a rotten shot, still learning, but that's pretty bad even for me. My handloads are much more accurate, about 4" groups.

Anyone else care to share their experience with fiocchi .455?

Funny. I fired Fiocchi ammo through my Webley MK I and the accuracy was much better then with handloads...

I never had much accuracy joy with the original round nose hollow base bullet regardless if it was my own cast or in the Fiocchi factory round. Last time I used Fiocchi rounds out of my MKII was to dispatch a couple of pigs at close range, honestly accuracy was not that great(and I don't think it was all my fault). Yet with the Keith style FN bullets, 4-6 inch groups at 20 yards all day long.

I fired 25 rounds from my 3 1/2 barrel Webley RIC at 15 yards and the accuracy was very good. Hit where I aimed it.
