Thread: Fiocchi Perfecta Ammo - new box with tarnished brass

Hi team, happy Friday.

Just a query on some Fiocchi Perfecta .270 ammo I bought today from a store I usually try to avoid, but sometimes needs must. This was on sale $24 cheaper than Winchester Super-X, which I used to buy.

Got home, opened the box, and the brass that wasn't hard up against the plastic insert was all tarnished, and the lead SP was sort of furry. Never seen new ammo tarnished like that. Pics below.

Has anyone used this ammo? Or had the same experience? Be good to get your collective thoughts. At this stage I'm assuming it's been sitting on a shelf for a long time, so planning on returning it, and upgrading - reminding myself that you get what monkeys you pay peanuts for, and cry twice.

Thanks.
