Just thought some of my fellow Ruger PCC9 brothers might like to hear about an ammo that worked exceedingly well for me. (Basic PCC 9 with a 1-6 power LPVO scope).
The set-up: Sylamore range / Ark game and fish. Shooting distance; 108-ish yard to the berm. All shots rested BR. front rest with rear bag. Now the berm slope changes the sitting profile of the clay pigeons to more like 3-4 inches of profile vs. the 5.5 / 6inch clays total profile showing. I placed two / 10 clay banks on the berm. Right out of the box this Fiocchi went 17 out of 20 clays. some only really giving side profile. To say I was impressed is an understatement. After that string I tried it with hold over at the 200+ range on a steel swinger a fellow shooter had placed down range. Happy to say standing I hit 11 times. After that I quit and decided to go back to the store where I bought the ammo and cleaned them out of it, lol. This stuff worked really well for me. The mags were factory Glock 17 mags a modified Glock 26 mag and 33rd sticks.

I’ve never run it in a carbine, but I’ve found it exceptionally accurate… doesn’t do as well as some of the higher priced stuff (in my gun; it likes Hornady critical duty), but does very well indeed for the price point.
 
I like Fiocchi ammo. I shoot their shotgun, rimfire, 5.56 and handgun ammo in 9mm, .40 and .45.

I have a couple of unopened cases of their 115 fmj and another case of it dumped into a .

The Ruger PC9 is a fun gun, mine wears a Bushnell red dot and is zeroed at 25 yards (bullet rising) and it is juuust about back on zero at 75 yds (bullet going down). I also use the Glock magwell and various Glock magazines, too.

It’s an ammo gobbling machine, thats for sure. :thumbup:

Stay safe.
 
I've been using somewhat oddball 158 grain fmj round nose. Subsonic out of the long barrel. Maximal ratio of gong noise to muzzle noise.
