Struggling with aiming a sig
OP - you hit the jackpot on good responses. All very good analysis.

One thing I thought of is the Sig THREE dot sights. If you're actually an older "young man", the following may apply. After my old eyes starting crapping out several years ago, I stopped using three dot anythings. Caused visual confusion.

Switched to either one front dot or plain black/black sights. Shooting vastly improved. What type of sights do you normally use on your revolver(s)?

Welcome to the forum.

1. Change the front so you can use #1 or #2 (Ideally about #1 1/2)

2. Take a magic marker and black out the rear dots.

3. Forget you ever heard of such a nonsense idea as "combat sights".
(AKA only useful to shoot big things up close)

OP,

Post a picture of a target at 15 yards with your sig. we can diagnose from there.

All my Sigs are set up to shoot #2. I just sent my Legion back and they swapped it out and sent it back, no charge. Glocks shoot to #2 out of the box.

I ended up finding time for some shooting tonight and went to the exact same course as the other day that I struggled with so much. I watched that video that was posted before and a few others to help me get an idea of what my issues were and I did some dry fire practice last night. Got to the course today and damn near went 100%. It was unreal. I figured out that my issue was how I was holding the bead over the target.

Really excited to keep working on it.
