Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns Most accurate polymer framed striker type pistol?

Ran lots of 1911's, Hi-Standard & S&W 22's through a Ransom........assuming the rest is not moving on the table, I've never adjusted the POI between shots.

Any movement between the slide & frame is there regardless of whether the gun is fired from a rest or by hand & is an integral part of its accuracy; naturally, when fired by hand the sights move off POI & must be realigned.

Or maybe I'm not correctly understanding your point, JOG.

By the way, good to see you back & posting again.

That's the correct procedure to determine the precision of the pistol, IMO, but not everyone does it that way (especially gun writers).

Back to outshooting a Ransom, I should have specified Browning-type tilting barrels. Hi-Standards and the like don't count due to the rigid sights/barrel/frame assembly.

As you know, only the frame is locked into the POI in a Ransom for the first shot. The slide assembly and muzzle can move off line shot-to-shot within the tolerances of the pistol. That's the true test of the precision of the pistol, but opens up the Ransom rest to defeat by a human shooter that realigns the sights for each shot.

Thanks for the welcome...I think. I see you haven't done much to clean the place up. That's the last time I leave you in charge.

The ones I have and shoot best most easily are:

(1) My USP Expert in .40 S&W: http://www.hk-usa.com/civilian_products/uspe_general.asp

and

(2) My XD40 Tactical: http://springfieldxdstore.com/index.php?tpl=xd40-5-tactical1



The 4-lb SA trigger pull on the HK makes it pretty easy to shoot groups that I can't with other pistols.

My brother usually can shoot better than me with his Browning Hipower, but he's just a bit better (though I beat him with a rifle).

CZ (polymer) low end model, if it is striker fired? Most accurate polymer pistol I have shot.

Glock 30 in 45 acp dang accurate?

My experience is a Glock over the XDS by a whisper.

The G30 is a super accurate shooter for me after I tweaked it a wee bit.
