Got to range today to sight in Acro P2 on the Operator and put some rounds through Emissary, both .45s. Was using the Syntech Flat Nose 230g/830 FPS for zeroing. No zeroing targets available so used this one, at 10 yards. A WAG, since only 7 and 15 marked on wall.
Shooting at tops center circle with Operator/Acro P2, first 3 were low, but seemed centered. Cranked about 3/4 full turn to raise, and this was how next 8 came out along with first three, still center #2. The highest miss was on me. Put a final 5 into top left #1 and figured I’d leave it alone. This was all 2H standing, no rest.
Then I checked zero on Emissary with top right #3. First 3 were to the left in circle, quick adjustment, all good. 2 misses all me
.
Next two targets are backwards. Operator is on Emissary target and vice versa. Some kind of shooting class came in after I started (not the range) and filled all the lanes, with 4-5 extra folks behind them. And an instructor. So all of a sudden crowded, extra hot, and nowhere near an enjoyable shooting experience. And I got in a hurry (safely), hence reversed targets.
So this is how did with Operator 5” after Acro p2 dialed in.
And this was actually with Emissary. I may need to change optic as I really don’t care for chevron style dot. Vision not good enough to see top tip while focused on target so was pretty much using whole chevron as dot…where I’m sure a solid dot would be faster.
AIMPOINT seems solid on the Operator, though overkill for range gun, no doubt. Also have to careful in and out of stand up pistol safe. Due to height at rear, have to twist sideways a bit to avoid dinging optic on safe shelf. Other than ridiculous crowd, enjoyed another day of shooting!
