Could You Have Stopped This? Vegas Shooting Analysis with Attorneys on Retainer

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Help with new P220

Posted: 2/20/2006 9:18:25 PM EDT

I took my P220 for the second time to the range and I can't seem to get good groups, I fire two to three rounds and it looks good and tight, then it opens up with flyers and gets lousy, this is at 7 and 10 yards

at 25 yards I can't hit paper (small pistol 25 yard targets) I used large human figure targets and the spread is from one end to the other, is it me? I can't be that bad I can shoot my CZ very accurately but I can't seem to master this one, it has less than 250 rounds on it

Any thoughts or tips? every thing seems tight so what can it be I used Win ball and Hp 230 for both.

I'd keep at it. If it keeps up, let someone else shoot it and see how they do. If it does it for everyone who shoots it, then I'd call SIG. Between it being new and new to you, maybe you two just need to get to know each other better.

My new 220 and I got real cozy at the 400 round mark.

Out of 50 rounds, 43 in the 10 and 7 in the 9 at 7 yds with AE.

Thanks I'll keep trying next week, I'm hoping it's just a break in issue has anyone else experienced this with thier new gun?

Sometimes it just takes a while for you and a gun to click. Has yours got the bar-dot sights? Mine did, and I hated them, had to concentrate on the sights rather than the dot. I shoot with three dot sights much better.

Not sure what the bar dot sights are mine are night sights, they glow in the dark

About a $100 (500 rounds) worth of ammo will get you to where you like it.
