Yes, but at an indoor range or after it stops raining. I just came back from a cold and wet afternoon at the Richmond range. Soggy targets blowing off the backing, squelching through the mud downrange, and all that.
I was trying to find out what loads the Combat Master likes. So far it likes (1) Winchester 185 gr Silvertip JHP, (2) Sellier & Beloit 230 gr FMJ, (3) Winchester white box 230 gr FMJ, and (4) some random 230 gr FMJ reloads I bought at another range. "Likes" means zero malfunctions. It hates (5) lead 200 gr SWC (combined FTE/FTF once per magazine, I gave the rest of the box away), and surprisingly doesn't really like (6) Fiocchi 230 gr FMJ. I need to learn its tastes before mail-ordering ammo in bulk, and I need to buy bulk ammo or I won't be able to afford this gun. I also need to get the gun sighted-in, it is shooting way low. Definitely not a target gun, but I knew that.
I shot a guy's SigPro 9mm. I didn't really like the trigger (long take-up) but it was accurate for me, pretty much kept inside the 9 ring. Also his S&W revolver in .45 ACP. Very sweet, 10-rings were the rule, even shooting DA. This is at 25 yd with the wind blowing me around.
