OK, I spent some time at my range yesterday trying to address the suggestions/concerns of some or the helpful responders in this thread.

I used my most accurate loads (147 bullet loads) with 5 mags loaded with 8 rounds each. I only shot the first 6 rounds from each mag to keep all testing equal.

All shots were from a solid bag rest at 25 meters.

Starting with an empty gun & open slide--

__First mag inserted & slide dropped with slide catch-- First shot went high left of center dot, next 5 shots went low right of center dot -- the 5 lower right shots went into a 2.75" group-- the center of that lower right group to center of the high left first shot measured 4.2".

__Second mag inserted & slide dropped with slide catch-- First shot went high left of center dot, next 5 shots went low right of center dot -- the 4 lower right shots went into a 3.1" group (I tossed out one shot as I pulled it high right)-- the center of that lower right group to center of the high left first shot measured 3.9".


__Third mag inserted & slide dropped with slide catch-- First shot went high left of center dot, next 5 shots went low right of center dot -- the 5 lower right shots went into a 2.3" group-- the center of that lower right group to center of the high left first shot measured 3.45".

__Forth mag inserted & slide dropped with slide catch-- First shot went high left of center dot, next 5 shots went low right of center dot -- the 5 lower right shots went into a 3.6" group-- the center of that lower right group to center of the high left first shot measured 3.9".

__Fifth mag inserted & slide dropped with slide catch-- First shot went high left of center dot, next 4 shots went low right of center dot (I couldn't find 5th hole & sight was on target at shot break so it probably went through an existing hole?) -- the 4 lower right shots went into a 2.6" group-- the center of that lower right group to center of the high left first shot measured 4.1".

Next I loaded all 5 mags with 5 rounds each then only shot the first round from each mag using the slide catch to load that first round into chamber.

All first rounds went high left of target center dot & I ended up with just under a 2.9" 5 shot group.

It started raining so that was it for yesterday.

Having just got here.... for the love of Pete just let someone else shoot the damn thing and get past the shooter thing!

Actually I did just that this morning, didn't help as the gun still shoots the first round high left but thanks for the suggestion.

I have a P320FS and a compact, last time a friend of mine shot my FS for the first time and groups 3" high at 10m, i'm dead center. I think there is a possiblity due to the heavy trigger and the recoil impulse ...

"Heavy trigger?" "Recoil impulse?" With a P320? Full-size?

Yes the trigger is 6,5-7 lbs, a lot different than glocks with 5,5,Lbs or sig with SA in 4,5lbs.
The P320 recoils more than the P226, and the P320C is a bit sharp for me like the PPQ, the problem is what is the gune you've shot before the P320.
I've seen very good shooters at 50m with P210's with very light triggers , sparaying all over the paper with the glock at 25m.

We'll never know now. It's gonna be one of those "mysteries of life" kind of a things, I guess. Kind of like "Why is there air?"

Hah! I can't say nothin' about that. I once got so annoyed with the denizens and management of a site I actually found every last post I'd ever made, over about a 2-3 year period, and deleted it. Every. Last. One. Then I logged off, cleared every cookie related to that site, cleared my browser history and cache, removed my credentials for that site from my keyring, and removed that domain and every site user I had whitelisted for email. Never went back.

Yeah, I was that annoyed
