Kimber Solo Question

[ruger1228]

I am looking for some feedback on what others are experiencing with the accuracy of the Kimber Solo and what type of ammunition provides the best accuracy, what kind of groups you get at 15-25 yards.
Any and all information will be appreciated. Thanking you in advance for your help.

Non + p

I have one for over a year and I found that shooting +P was not fun and not advised.
I shoot GDHP in a non +P load and it shoots fine and the accuracy at 7 yards is all I need to shoot a qual.
I have shot it at 25 yards and yes its possible to shoot well enough to qual ,but the sights are smallish and it takes longer to do follow up shots.
I see it doing well for what it was designed for = a pocket 9 MM,that is SMALL.

I owned a Solo and carried it. It was almost a pleasure to shoot 124 gr and up as recommended by Kimber. It did jam every now and then during practice. After the initial box of ammo specified by Kimber for breaking it in, it kept misfiring. I could have continued breaking it in, but decided to trade. It also had a flimsy tiny slide stop spring (if I remember correctly) that had to be positioned just so during reassembly. I cut my teeth on Glocks. This is not my cup of tea in a defensive pistol. I feel the Solo is well made and may have needed time to work out some bugs. May just not be for everyone.
That was one mans experience, as subjective as it gets.

Edit: Of the groups. I only shot mine at 7 yards. Didn't care to measure, but easily within a silhouette at any rate of fire, off hand. That's all I wanted from my CCW.
Peace.
