Anyone here have a P228, P226, and a P220? I am curious as to how they all shoot for other people. I have heard some people not getting on with the P226, but liking the P228. I hear universal praise for the P220.
Personally, I haven't gotten the P228 to group well, even at 7 yards, despite really, really wanting to like and buy this gun for carry. I have shot two of them, (even trying the range guy's carry gun after suffering my first disappointment) and I consistently get a horrible 2-3 inch pattern at 7 yards. (I put 5 shots from a P220 into a one inch hole at 7 yards the first time I picked it up, and I shoot sub-2" groups at 15 yards with my G21).
Is the P228 less accurate then the P226/P220 or is it me? Is this the normal effect of a shorter barrel/sight radius? Is the difference supposed to be this great or do I need an eye exam? I'm a fairly large guy with no problem with recoil. The grip feels just as good as the other guns to me, and the trigger feels fine, as well.
Do I need to try a new gun or new ammo? I can't imagine any ammo problem could be that noticeable at 7 yards... or is the P228 really finicky?
