Went Pistol shootin and took some lousy pics

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Went Pistol shootin and took some lousy pics

Posted: 4/4/2006 7:12:40 PM EDT

Only had my Cellphone/camera , oh well

Finally was warm and dry enough to go after work.

Took my P226 , P245, and Taurus snubbie.
Ran about 50 rds thru each.

Had 2 FTFs with the new P245 , but it was with some cheap
.45 semi-wadcutters I had kicking around.

Dirty P245

I LOVE THIS GUN!

Part of the Club-

The P226 loves wwb .40SW 180gr.

Ran some 158gr .357 thru the Taurus ( thank god for rubber grips

)

I was a little surprised that the P245 had less muzzle jump than
my P226 .40 , I guess its the way it sorta nestles in your hand.

( Did I Say I LOVE THIS GUN!

)

Didn't really shoot groups , just blastin and break-in for the p245.

Here's a "composite" Target after I was done.

Well , Time to go clean SIGS now.

I'm not surprised that your .40 jumps more. I've never shot it but whenever I hear someone or shooting it, it sounds louder and the recoil looks more than other .45's, like mine, at the range. Plus, If you look at the ballistics, it's pretty stiff.

edited to add: I don't know why I quoted minator556 then said what I said. I do however agree with him, there's no cure for us junkies.

Crap , I just realized there's no scale to the target pictures!!

Those are REDUCED SIZE Silhouettes !

The WHOLE TARGET is only about 12"w x 16"h, and most of my shooting was at 10 yds.

So YES the Baddies would be Dead.

No, just a lucky guess. I can tell by your groups. They tend to be more to the right and down. Very common for lefties.

Ah Yes , another fun day in the sun....
Easter made the range very quiet, only 4 people for 3 ranges
Not the best group of the day, but OK. (mostly)
