Sig Sauer Super Target Ransom Rest 50yd

My son was given this pistol this month and I searched the web for 50 yard testing results.  I couldn't find any.  So the main reason for this post is to get this info out there on the web so others can find it in the future.  I tried only 2 loads 4.5 and 4.3 bullseye with 185 Zero JHPs.  There may be a better load that would tighten up the group.

Try 4,2 BE.

That said, if you had moved the rear sight 2 clicks down and 2 right, it would likely be a 97.  Which isn’t bad for a production gun.  Certainly capable enough for a SS or budding Expert.

Actually, that used to be close to the standard accuracy guarantee for Jim Clark accurized pistols.  That would take one into the Master class easily. How is the trigger? Are the sights easily adjusted and repeatable? I didn't see the group for the 4.5 grains of Alliant Bullseye. How was that group?

The sights are different.  The rear sight has clipped corners but otherwise is a normal target sight.  The front is a fiber optic and is very skinny.  I kinda like it though.  The trigger was very poor to begin with, but now it is a nice smooth 4 lb pull after a quickie trigger job.  The series 80 parts were deleted as well.  The slide to frame fit is really nice.  Also the overall finish quality is beautiful, which doesn't add a single point to the score, but darn it's just nice.

No pic of the 4.5 group.  It was slightly worse.

Let Jarrod shoot it for accuracy, might be a tighter group...

Wonder if P210 - not that they are available - would do any better.
Since I was a boy, I have heard stories about the P210.

Looks like some vertical stringing, do you have spring in your barrel?

There is some springing in the fit.  I'll have that fixed up soon.
