Lower POI .45 Colt question.

There's not a lot you can do with a snubnosed revolver that's hitting that low at such a short distance.
I don't own/use a 45lc revolver but I've carried a snubnosed 44spl since the 80's. a ca bulldog with 220gr hbwc's turned backwards making a huge hp.
When using light bullets/heavy loads I cover what I'm aiming at with the front sight @ 25ft.
When using light/standard loads I use a 6 0-clock hold.
The target on the right was shot @ 25ft with that 44spl/bulldog using a 8.0gr load of power pistol and 2 different bullet. A 245gr swc hp and a 200gr type III wc.
Both bullets had the same velocity and poa with that 8.0gr load.

Adjusting The Front Sight!
