Well, I've loved every round I've put through my XD40 until last night. My beloved father talked me into shooting a "mini" national match with my XD. For the record, we're talking one handed shooting. It starts at 50 yards with 2 rounds of 10 shots in 10 miniutes. Next comes 5 shots in 20 seconds, twice, at 25 yards. Finally, we have 5 shots in 10 seconds, twice, also at 25 yards.
Out of 60 rounds, five or so hit paper. Of course, the only two not shooting some fancy, hopped up target pistols were myself (XD) and my father (Glock 17). I did beat my father (DIE GLOCK DIE!!! :wink: ) but that was all.
Holding the weapon with both hands, I know I could kill paper at 25 yards( I think) but 50 seems a bit much. My question is this: Does anyone have any idea how much drop an XD40 seems to have at 25, 50 and/or more yards out? This alone would help my score.
Also, as an aside, has anyone else tried shooting this sort of competition with an XD and how did you fare?
Thanks.
Dave
