Most accurate was my Vostok Toz-35 when I was competing in Free Pistol.

I was also a big fan of my High Standard Supermatic Trophy.

Currently, my most accurate is my STI Trubore in .38 Super.

Paul, they can do just about anything you want (package or a la carte). I live about 15 minutes from their shop....Like a kid in a candy store. I'll send you some prices in a PM.

I second that vote. My dad has one and it is quite a nice little pistol.

its all in the shooters ability..................and the quality of ammo!

my next test:eley match .22LR
dynamit-nobel(rws) match .22LR ammo.

we shot that smith/wesson .22 at 138yds (lasered) with crap walmart federal copper jackets($13.87 per 550) dancing cans ALL DAY LONG! amazing accuracy out of the box. just did this 2 weekends ago. smiths #617 i think has a price tag of around $600 bucks. it aint cheap but it sho does shoot good!

cant even fathom groups w/quality match ammo.

my brothers friend had some HK target pistol that i could draw with. i dont know the model number. my bro's regular 9mm hk pistol is super accurate too.

honestly, if you practice with a quality piece, they are all accurate. i have an office mate that can do smiley faces with his sig. and he has two wandering eyes.

My most accurate shooting was with a Sig, my worst was everything else I've shot (Colt, Berreta, HK, Browning, Ruger.)

Here's what inspired me - I was dry firing a Walther GSP (I think) at the SHOT show this year -

Fit my hand into the ergonomic grip, like wriggling into a snug leather glove, when I was "in", I couldn't wiggle the gun even with my fingers loose.

Held it up, one-handed, gun was balanced and heavy (weight under the barrel) and didn't wander at all.

Looked through the sights - crisp front blade and big flat rear sight, so clear and the difference between lined up and not was almost digital.

Pulled the trigger, no movement at all and then a tiny, almost imperceptible "ting" and the sights didn't move at all. Like breaking a tiny thread of glass with your pinkie.

I don't know the weight but couldn't have been more than a couple pounds pull.

I'm thinking of buying that sort of gun. And fitting an optical sight, since my eyes are getting old. I figure on paying $2K up front.

High standard Supermatics....Tournament, Citation or Trophy. 90% of target shooter were shootin HS in the early 60's. It was the Smith 41 that gave it competition.

Les Paul 10-07-2008 06:37 PM

nostatic have you compared the price of the Ruger MK II to the Sig you suggest? You must really be doing well if you can rationalize that match.

Milu 10-07-2008 11:41 PM

A lot of nice pistols mentioned. All are accurate, many however, are not pure target pistols. Some are long out of production, from manufacturers that may no longer exist.

I disagree with the view that it's all down to the operator. A better target pistol reflects in better scores.

Anyone else besides me willing to admit they are mediocre shots and post how accurate THEY shot?

Browning HiPower in .40cal

Tobra 10-08-2008 05:55 AM

whichever one my brother Geoff is shooting at the time

tab tanner 10-15-2008 08:20 PM

Remington XP100 in 6mm BR, It would shoot a 6 shot group @ 100yds you could cover with a dime

Rick Lee 10-15-2008 08:41 PM

There's a SIG P210 for sale on SIGforum at the moment. I think it's just north of $2k.

Rick V 10-16-2008 02:52 AM

MKII
If I had to get rid of my pistols that would be one of the last ones I would let go. Just fun to shoot, cheep to shoot, and very accurate, even in my shaking hands. Get a bull barrel.

HardDrive 10-16-2008 06:48 AM

When I get settled down, I chip out a nice round paper hole with my Sig 226 .40.

I was going to vote for a Kimber Custom II. I was astounded at how accurate it is out of the box.

But .22s are the obvious choice.

+1 on that!

air-cool-me 10-16-2008 08:44 AM

the one i shot the most... more shooter skill then it is super duper gold plated gear..

LakeCleElum 10-16-2008 08:54 AM

Most accurate - Not drinking coffee B4 shooting makes more difference than the cheapest and most expensive handgun I've ever shot. Another big factor: Have your eyesight checked every 2 yrs - There's a big drop in accuracy as you get older....

JTO 10-16-2008 12:51 PM

Accurate and hard hitting; my Freedom Arms .454 Casull. This group was shot by me with handloads from the bench. 360 grain hard cast with gas check. 36.5 grains of H110. Mental fortitude is the name of the game when shooting this sucker! Group measured roughly 2.5" at 100 yards.
