Hello everyone,
Newbe here from Houston, Texas. Recently got my first pistol Sig P250 Compact 9mm. I have been quite happy with it. But I would like to hear your comments from P250 owners on its accuracy in relation with trigger reset time.
I did my research and was aware of the trigger issue. However, I was confident that I can train myself to get used to it. After all, I have never owned any other handguns before so it shouldnt be too bad. i like the look, the reliability, and the accuracy that the google reported. I felt that the long trigger reset adds to safety. Plus, LGS had none to rent, so I decided to buy it new.
Put through around 750 rnds and never had any failure with good ammo. I have been using Geco ammo which are made in Switzerland. One time tried Fiochi which is the stuff they sell at the local range and within 100 rnds, I got 3 Failures To Fire. Needless to say, I will never buy Fiochi again. This satisfies the reliability aspect.
Regarding the accuracy. Using the B27 silhoutte targets, I do really well with the 3 yd line (99% hitting the within the X ring), pretty well with the 7 yd line (95% hitting within the 9 ring) but not so well at the 10 yd+ line where usually 30% off my shot hit between the 8 and the 9 ring. I have the tendency to hit low left of the target. Google hinted that I have the jerking problem which is validated with my laser. i could see the laser point pulled to the low left right when the gun goes bang. I dont practice shooting with laser on, only when investigating why I tend to aim low left.
Now, I practice often, including dry fire (which doesn't show the problem as clearly as shooting in the range). I am also aware of the technique to ride the trigger until almost breaking before aiming, which I do all the time. It appears to me that my jerking habbits which is caused by the long and heavy trigger reset is very hard to fix. I think my finger just get tired and refuse to pull straight. I am 5'8 and 180 lbs. I am sure my grip and stance is proper.
To other P250 owners, do you have the same issues with what I have? What is your comments/recommndation?
