After 150 rounds of shooting the Arex Rex Delta, I pulled out the HK P30. The Rex is a carry size gun and the P30 maybe more a duty size gun. Anyway, when I pulled the HK out, it just felt so nice in my hands. "Oh yeeeeh!" I said, "This is a Cadillac!"
The First load up was Federal American Eagle - 125g - FMJ and here are the first three shots on paper at 14 yards:
No misses on either steel at 18 yard. Here was six-for-six on one of those 18 yard steels!!
Every round fed, fired and ejected perfectly. (Well, it is Federal!!) At the gong at 25 yards and the popper @30 yards I missed one shot, going 5/6 on each!!
Here is the popper at 30 yards. I believe one hit is covered up with the rear sight!:
I had three knockdowns at 33 yards. I went two-fer-three on two knockdowns and 1/1 on the other (and the wind took it down the second time).
Now @50 yards....no misses!! Here is 13/13 at the 50 yard steel:
Two of those shots were taken Double Action!
Next load up was Federal - 100g - CC BallistiClean and here are six shots on paper @14 yards with that:
Now, since this was frangible ammo, I got up close and personal with the large steel. This is the steel I normally shoot at 50 yards.... but this time I was more like 5-7 yards away! I was doing the "Collateral drill" (but with just one target). I would draw, fire once from the hip DA....and then two aimed shots at the head SA. This ammo ran without a hitch also!
I tend to pull left when shooting from the hip (even left off off the target) but with the HKs double action I shot pretty decently!
Totals for this pistol:
357Sig: 670 rounds representing 13 loads
40S&W: 0 rounds representing 0 loads
Parting shot - HK P30 with Federal! 2/3 on the gong @25 yards:
