Well, I snuck out of work early yesterday,went home tried to sleep for a bit then packed my stuff and went to the range.
I shot 230grain wwb's ,federal champions, and winchester dpx 230grain rounds.
Here it is. BTW I didn't get to use the good camera because she is still playing with it. I can understand that.
This is my first target of the day with little groups here and there from different ranges from 5-25ft. Look at those HUGE holes! I shot the buckmark which gave me problems, but I'll get into that later. I also brought my CZ75B 9mm ofcourse.
I'm not the best shot, but that kimber seemed to know where I wanted to hit and just went there for me. These are from about 21ft.

The kimber proves accurate!
I flinched with the first shot of my cz expecting a bigget push.
All dirtied up!!
What a fun trip to the range!! The kimber gave me a couple fail to feeds, but I don't know if that might have been my limpflinching. I had to concentrate pretty hard to get used to the recoil of the larger bullet. I have to say that after a couple hundred rounds it's not pleasant to shoot like the CZ because of the lighter weight and heavier ammunition. |

Good shooting there. I'm surprised you didn't mention the difference in triggers between the CZ and the 1911. For me, a nice SA trigger makes it very difficult to shoot anything else... |

I generally shoot the CZ single action. The kimber triger is MUCH better though. I love the straight back design. The kimber trigger surprised me at how well it broke at first. Those shots were the farrrrr left on the first target.  |

How did you like the reset? I love the quick reset, barely move your finger. Nice shooting! __________________ If the pain is lacking so is the discipline...

Nice report, I wanted to warn you about having a few failures to begin with, that is pretty typical for the first few rounds. I have found that the 185gr works better in the 4" and 3" 45's. I am suppose to pick up my Pro Carry II today, had a trigger job done and had it set at 3 1/2lbs on the break.
Again nice report.  __________________ Now is the time for ALL MEN to come to aid of their country. Protect the freedom for ALL!!

Nice report and really good shooting Goju. I think it is safe to say you got a dead bad guy there.
It would appear we have another convert to the 100 year old design from JMB with the greatest trigger ever.  __________________ "as for my Sword & Spear we will serve the throne, but NEVER that man who sits upon it" - Achilles - Warrior of Warriors

Very nice, Goju. Dead bad guys all day long. Looks like you could even take them apart piece by piece.  __________________ From C3Shooter:
