I have a P85 MK II and have been trying to get it to group what I would consider 'acceptable', meaning ~4-5in at 25 yards. I am having some trouble getting it to do this. From a rest with a two-handed hold I am getting groups that range about 7-9in.
The thing is, when I stand up and shoot off hand (and relatively quickly too) I get the same groups or maybe even a little better.
7-9in rapid fire at 25yards I can deal with, but for some reason I cant seem to do much better off a bench.
I am conscious of my trigger pull and I work on keeping the gun steady as I follow thru. Just to check myself I will switch off to my MKII .22 and with that I can keep 'em all under 2.5in, often under 2in.
I have been shooting a lot of CCI Blazer Brass and some reloads that my uncle made probably ten years ago so I suppose it could be the ammo. I seem to remember that WWB was better when i was shooting that (it was cheaper).
Anyone have a similar experience?
Also, does anyone know of a good gunsmith that can improve on the trigger on this gun? Its got a long, heavy, spongy pull and I know this is at least part of the problem.
