So, the local gun club has a steel target range that all members must qualify to use. The standard is 9 of 10 shots on a 6-inch circle from 15 yards, shot standing, without any kind of a rest. This may not sound hard, but at the most recent qualifying meeting, a dozen guys tried it and NOT ONE passed!
From time spent at the range, I am very uncertain that I can ever meet this standard with my current handgun. So I am considering getting something a bit more accurate to practice with, so at least I can tell if the problem is me or the gun. (I'm not a world-class shot at the best of times.) It has to be 9mm because I am committed to that caliber; I have everything I need to reload it, and only it. I am assuming it will be an autoloader, because most revolvers I've ever heard of in 9mm (the Blackhawk, S&W) were not cheap. But I'll take what I can get. Any suggestions?
