Finally got a chance to function test my new M&P 10. I wanted to do it a few weeks ago but got tied up. So today in the rain I was able to send some lead down the barrel and see how she cycled. It was quite informal. I have not gotten a scope for the 10 yet , so I took the P223 Nikon off of the M&P 15 sport, (QD rings) and locked her on the 10s rail. Did not sight it in. I was just looking for how the 10 would function. Every thing went Flawlessly. Surprised to be on the target and the group was good. My new Caldwell brass catcher work as it should. All in all a good outing.:D Did put the target on upside down :confused:

Dude. What the heck?! How far out were you shooting? 10 feet? I'll be taking my M&P 10 out tomorrow for the first time with iron sights and I bet from 2 feet I don't get get grouping like that. haha Nice shootin tex! I'm jealous. I have a feeling if there's a zombie apoc, I'll be eaten.
 
Well it was a little more than ten feet. :D There are 20 rounds on that target. Really was only interested in how she cycled. I have read post were guys say they are having issues with the 10 . I cleaned and lubed her up before taking her out. I was shooting Winchester Match ammo at six and a half feet ;). Actually it was thirty yards. I was happy it went as well as it did.
 
Don't know what ammo you gents are using but, with my reloads, am able to punch ~ 1 MOA at 100 yards with Leupold and and ~2 MOA with Eotech + 3X. I'm not the greatest shooter out there for sure but am happy with those Hornady 150 FMJ groups. Good luck!
 
New scope for the 10.

Last week I ordered a scope for the 10. Picked up a Redfield Revenge 4-12 x 42 with the Accu-Ranger feature. I have older Redfield scopes and have been very happy with them. Was not sure what the quality of the new ones would be . I know Leupold took over Redfield so I was hoping for the best. It got here yesterday and looks very high quality. I just finished mounting it. The glass is crystal clear. It fits the 10 quit nicely. Will need to sight it in and shoot some 100 yard groups. Put a Hogue grip on her too.
