3 consecutive 5 shot groups from cold, standing unsupported. Have only plinked at this distance before with steel plates and really enjoyed this exercise! Valor .45 ACP using S&B ball ammo.

1st group, one missed the paper by a small distance I think!

Is that electronic score manual or automatic? That looks pretty handy

It’s an app called Ballistic-X, been using it for about a year now mostly for smallbore rifle.

@USMC(ret) - to better answer your question it is manual, you have to establish 1) 1” reference on target for the software to work its magic, 2) establish POA, 3) mark impacts, 4) input projectile caliber and distance. After that the app works out group size/MOA and you can choose to crop or add notes to the layout before saving.

I slightly improved my supported score, I'm down to about 1.25" with the .40S&W barrel.

I didn't measure the unsupported group but eyeballing it, I'd guess around 4.5 inches.

I think I'm gonna need to pick up a match-fit 10mm barrel for this so I have more loads to pick from. Either that or start hand loading 9x25. I'm not gonna lie, I was really hoping for better results from my 9x25 barrel, but until I can test to determine otherwise, I'm still blaming it on the hotrod ammo.

I’d say that storm trooper blaster is serving you well, but the storm troopers aren’t nearly as accurate as that!

Well I ain't gonna win anything. :ROFLMAO: I am NOT a bullseye shooter. But it was a fun challenge and so here 'tis. Just FYI, that Colt is every bit as accurate as the other two. It was the last up, and my shooting let it down.

Five shots, 25 yards, offhand.

Obviously, the Wilson was the clear winner @ 2 3/8". But if I did it again tomorrow, it could all be reversed. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

I didn't take a picture because the target wasn't clean before I started my group, but I did just log an approximately 1.5" group standing offhand with a faux Glockenboomer I'm working on right now. Wish I would've shot it on a clean target!

The gun was wearing a 509T when I shot the group.

That bottom target reminded me of the Springfield Armory 10 Penny Challenge. 10 pennies, ten shots at 5 yards. This video is worth watching just for the trash talking...let alone Rob Leatham's INCREDIBLE skill. :ROFLMAO: :p
