Yesterday I tried it out for the first time. The gun club I am a member of, does not allow silhouette targets. I typically load 5 rounds per magazine, fire, re-acquire sight picture and fire again. Shooting it took some getting used to, with the rear sight having the protective bracket in view. I was standing with a two-hand hold. I am right-handed but left eye dominant. I shoot with both eyes open. Targets used were placed at the 7-yard line. Weather was partly cloudy, breezy, and low to mid 50 degrees. Ammunition was Remington UMC 115gr FMJ. I fired one full box. All my shots were on paper. It was also accompanied with my 5903, 65-3 3", and 18-3.
The 5903 was fire the same as the 5905 sequences. The 65-3 was fired at a steel tree at 10 yards. My hit ratio was probably 75%. The 18-3 was fired at 25-yard steel plates hanging. Two 6", two 4", and one 3" diameter sizes. Hit ratio there was about 50%. All guns shot 50 rounds each. Target on left is 5905, target on right is 5903. 5903 has Hogue rubber grips.

If you can get some, try 124gr or 147gr ammunition. My 3rd Gens tend to shoot low with 115gr, although my 5906 handles it better than the 39xx or 69xx guns.

I have not had really great success with 115gr FMJ ammo either. I have found that 115gr JHP ammo usually produces better accuracy that the 115gr FMJ. Stepping up to 124gr and 147gr FMJ tends produces better accuracy and with these weights I have not seen a huge difference in accuracy between FMJ and JHP.
