So I just ordered 2000 rounds of this stuff for my soon to be silenced MP5....

It really only happened a few times, but no issues with the GA Arms subs, HUSH and even some of the IWI stuff.

Here is what I shoot now:

Nice I didn't know IMI/IWI made 9mm ammo.

I used the Fiocchi stuff in my silenced Beretta M9 and it wouldn't cycle. To light of a load sadly.

Try in your MP5. It runs flawlessly in my 9mm AR SBR, and it's the quietest stuff I've used.

cycles very well out'a SIG 226 quieter & cleaner per video comparison , I bet the HK would do even better? Respectfully

I will pick up a box and give her another shot then but it seems like the MP5 would require more pressure to cycle than my beretta?

Be interesting, I don't believe it will, mine had a pretty strong bolt recoil..Time and testing will tell let us know!

Let me know how you like it. I bought about a thousand rounds of this from Midway a while back and have had 0 issues; suppressed Sig, Glock, and MP5.

Can you post pics of your MP5? Is it a real FA MP5 or clone? I have a POF MP5 SA that I SBR'd and love it!!!

May depend on the pressure curve, dwell time may be longer and allow it to cycle better in a longer barrel.

No expert here on the MP5, but it's really all across the board on the subject, and it also depends on MP5 type, bolt head type, etc. Some people say you run the risk of breaking the roller holders, and you shouldn't go over 124. But I've seen lots of reports of people shooting 147 and 158 with no issues. I've shot 158 in an MP5 once, but it was limited. It did cycle fine though.

I've used the Fiocchi 158's in my 226 without any issues for a while. Very quiet, and hits noticeably harder than 147's.

I've tried the 158's in my Zenith MP5 clone with no issues. I reload 147gr XTP's and RMR's triple plated 147s and that's all I shoot through it. I have about 2,500 rounds through it with no issues.

Have used freedom munitions 147 grain reman and the lawman stuff in my suppressed glocks, ar-9, zenith mp5k, cz scorpion. All ran fine except the 147 reman hollow points from Freedom. would not cycle in the Zenith reliably. Guess it doesn't like hollow point ammunition.
