I bought a Swiss police trade-in P228 the other day, and this is its second trip to the range, so I wanted to compare it to my P30 V1 9mm. Both pistols functioned flawlessly, but I think the P30 edged it out in accuracy. I shot 100 rounds out of each with two different brands of ammo, 115 grain Federal Champion, and 124grain Agulia. I was at an indoor range and my shooting was done without a rest at 7 and 15 yards.
This first target was at 7 yards, and I only used federal ammo. The Sig was shot at the left two targets and the HK was shot at the right two. I put 15 rounds in the top two and 20 rounds in the bottom two (even though I marked those 15).
This second target was also set at 7 yards, and again the P228 was shot at the left two and the P30 was shot at the right two. I used 15 rounds of Federal ammo on the top left and right then switched to Agulia for the bottom two and put 20 rounds in each.
I took the last set of targets out to 15 yards and put 30 rounds of Agulia in each. I used the P228 for the circle target and the black center is 4” in diameter. I ran out of large circle targets so I had to switch to a white cross for the P30.
In summary I like both pistols but the HK won the day. At 7 yards both were pretty close but my groups with the sig opened up quite a bit at 15 yards. I think it might be the sights on the sig because there is not much of a gap between the front sight post and the rear notch so the target gets covered up. I don’t know what kind they are, but they are the night sights that came with it and there are no markings on them. They still have a lot of life in them so I won’t change them yet. The P30 still has the stock set of sight on it as well but I guess I’m just better with my HK.
I can't figure out how to rearrange them so here are the attchments not in the order of the above range report: 4th target, 3rd target, 1st target ,2nd target
