Default 351PD to the Range

Took the new 351PD to the range and put 100 CCI and Winchester 22 mag rounds down range. It is a great shooter and although the DA trigger pull is a bit more than the new 38 Bodyguard, I did not find it oppressive. In fact, the DA trigger on my 317 is a bit heavier. The sights took a bit of getting used to, but once the correct sight picture was obtained, there was no problem putting rounds where I wanted them. The last cylinder was all rapid DA and I placed all rounds withing a six inch group at about five yards. It is definitely a keeper.

Awesome. How far out did you shoot it and were the bullet impacts equal to your point of aim?

I shot from ten yards and closer. When I first started, the rounds were hitting high and then I adjusted the sight picture to have the front sight snugged down in the rear sight and POI was either right on or an inch or so high. Good enough for center of mass targeting.
