No hijack intended.
Here's another great drill that incorporates some time pressure while working from the holster.
"It goes to 11" (Yes, there's a Spinal Tap reference there).

It truly is a "challenge" to set aside a well running 1911 and trying this with my Brick... errr Glock 22. This pistol was a mystery to me, but it's getting somewhat better.
Today's time was spent evaluating handloads.
I shot two- the Kimber target wasn't any better than I posted on #446... but the one below I'm posting? I got all 20 on the paper!

I do that with these:
No point in wasting good ammo in slow fire.
how does the Webley Tempest shoot ?? I get my RWS out every once in awhile ..

Nice target .. But save your expensive ink ..duct tape is 2 inches wide .. cut a piece 3 inches long and place in the middle of a sheet of paper .. very cheap ..

Not bad--I've tried 3 times now with my Shield and failed 3 times. Yesterday I blew it on the 3rd 10 yd shot.

Good suggestion. Just remember to round off the corners a bit.
Not just "not bad", those are quite good. Very few can shoot a Shield that well. I know I can't.
Went out to try some new 45 reloads. 230gr RN Extreme bullets over 4.6gr Titegroup. This is 20 shots from 10 yds with my Dan Wesson Guardian. Need to change the front sight, hits high with everything. 1.86" wide edge to edge, 2.177" tall edge to edge.

An outstanding group TazTJ. In fact, it's small enough to fit in the orange center of the B-27E...
Alas, the group is not centered on a spot I could see. It is about one inch high.
So, while this is a great group, not a patch winner.

Yeah, the Guardian hits around 1" to 1.5" high with almost every load I have tried; my VBOB was the same till I switched the front sight. My aim point is the middle of the X on the 5 spot archery target, so with the distance known and the amount of correction known, now I can order a new front sight! It was also 20 rds at 10 yds because the place I shot was muddy and I didn't want to chase the brass around, so it wouldn't have qualified anyway.
Its a fun challenge to try! One of these days I will get it!

Looks fun,I'm not too very picky about accuracy in a combat pistol-example I fired my new to me SD9ve yesterday at...oooh about maybe fifteen or so feet and I could cover all seventeen shots with my hand.
When I get worried is when it looks like I used a shotgun on the target!

It's what I would call "field accurate." It is no match gun but I can consistently knock down a 1" steel plate at 10m which is good enough for me. Unfortunately it needs a rebuild as the performance has been dropping off steadily lately.
A couple examples in the spirit of the challenge.
My new RO Compact:
16 rounds at 5 yards and 16 at 7yds. These were the first shots from the gun. It's starting to settle in nicely.

It's a bit of a cheater, but the focus is fundamentals, right?
20151116_084317 by Slick_Rick77, on FlickrETA:
9MM ammo was PMC 115gr FMJ
.38 SPL was Remington UMC 130gr

Did this one a while back, reduced size target (11x18 IIRC?) all at 10 yds, indoor range with my SA 1911 that I rebuilt. 15 shots in the center, 15 shots in the head. Face was on purpose. The RO told me I had to shoot slower, so I did this target. He let me shoot faster after that
I gotta do some more targets with my other carry pistols and see how they do. Most of my EDC guns are DW 1911's, so it's kinda unfairI have hit a 12" plate at 100 yds with my DW 9mm ECO and also at 200 yds with a 5" 1911 .22lr Nelson conversion, standing 2 hand hold
