I am the same. I an't warm up to my 228 either. Not sure why. CZ ? maybe

I keep trying to identify mine. P30 probably at the moment

I can get the best grouping with my 1994 P229 357 SIG.
It has a GrayGuns RRCDP job done to it. I rarely shoot it, but I can achieve very good results and can only imagine what I can do if it was my dedicated carry gun that I would shoot often.

Browning Buckmark

Well, for EDC either my H&K P2000 or P30sk.

For target my Sig Stainless Super Target 1911. I have had better shooters than me compare this to their Les Baer and Wilson favorably.

Yep!

Could just be a balance thing. The folded slide on the P228 does make it balance slightly differently than the P229.

My Sig P226 in 40 S&W for range & home protection and my P228 for concealed carry.

Too hard to narrow down to one for me but my Gen 2 Glock 19, HK P30L, HK VP9, and SIG P226 are all excellent shooters for me.

now i do really like my 2 new sigs-p365 and p320x compact but the best shooter I have is my worked on STI edge in .40 that I shoot in limited in USPSA

Love my CS9 as much as any of my Sigs. Been carrying mine ever since I installed my new grips. Very,very accurate.

The two pistols I own that I seen to shoot best are an old Colt .45 1991 Government Model that I have owned for years and my SIG P226 Legion.

I also have a Ruger MK II that I shoot very well with. When I go to shoot and have fun, that is the pistol I nearly always take with me.

Hands down, my G26. I know it's a subcompact, but the dang thing is like I'm pointing my finger at the target, telling the boolits where they should go! Love that little guy!

Les Baer Premier 2 and a CZ Shadow 2.

P228, for sure... all day long!!!!

my 3 are tied for first. wg 226, Wilson cqb and hk usp 45

While I shoot all of my defensive pistols fairly well, my CZ Shadow 2 is the range favorite.

S&W MP 2.0 Compact 9mm followed by Sig P-228,Sig P-225,Sig P-226

Overall, I'd say my P226. However, pound for pound, my Glock 26 always surprises me by how well it hangs with much bigger guns on the range.

1911 Bullseye guns in 45.
Colt Officers Model Match in 38 Spcl.
Or High Standard Bullseye guns in 22.

All capable of cleans at 50 yards

If you mean forum topic related. My 228 from mid 90s will easily do 9 ring, maybe 10 ring at 25 yards offhand
