Ok,I decided I needed a different pistol,one that would use any type of ammo.So I got an XD40.I think it's the service model.
I read the owner's manual,and it had a section about aiming and such.It said that at 25 yards the bullet should strike the tardet where you aim.That,however,didn't happen.At first I was using cheap flat nose ammo.It was all over the target and way to the left.Then I put sone Remington JHP rounds.It went considerable better,but was still quite a bit to the left.I got to about 15 feet and it was STILL to the left,though the groups were better.I will mention that there was about a 15 MPH wind,but I didn't think that it would affect a 180 grn. bullet that much at that short range.This was the first time I had used the pistol.
Thoughts?
