Quick range trip

I haven't felt up to going to the range for several weeks now, but I finally made it out for a short trip today. There's a match coming up this weekend that's open to any manufacturer as opposed to the usual GSSF or rimfire matches the range holds. I haven't shot at all in almost a month, so I knew I needed to get to the range pronto. When it comes to shooting, I'm still not back to 100% after my strokes but I'm trying. I'm still not quite used to using a dot but I'm slowly getting better. When trying to decide between my Echelon 4.0C or my Gen 6 19 I thought I'd take my Hellcat along and practice the course. I bought my Hellcat when they were first released so needless to say I have more trigger time with it.

The compact course of fire is 3, 5, 7, 10, and 15 yards with 5 rds at each distance

The shot in the -1 was from 15 yards

I thought I'd shoot a few rounds with the Echelon 4.0. I wasn't too concerned with 5 - 10 yds so I started at 15 yds, followed by 25 yds.

25 yards was NOT pretty

I was starting to get winded, so I thought I'd shoot a few rounds through my Gen 6

If I'm able to shoot the match this weekend, I'm seriously considering shooting the Hellcat.

If you took the time to read this post, thank you

Nice, Hellcat looks good, I can’t shoot my full size echelon that well, I do better with my Sig M17 or hate to say it cause I’ll get flak, but my GX4 Carry…..sold all my Glocks when they sold out and did the V models and then Gen 6.

Good shootin, especially for someone who hasn't shot in weeks.
 
Hey @Joel66!

Those targets look pretty dang good after taking some time off. You came roaring back. You even had a few hits touching at 15 yards using the G19. Cool. That's nothing to sneeze at. Maybe you had an off day with the Echelon at 25yards but everything else looks nice. I hope you enjoy the match and show those whippersnapper what's what. ;)


Thank you for your indulgence,

BassCliff

Thank you, sir. I think the Hellcat and Glock triggers are more similar than the Hellcat and Echelon. I shot an XD-S since they were released, then followed that with the Hellcat. The Echelon feels totally different. If I shoot the Echelon first, I'm okay. If I shoot it after anything else, my target looks like I was shooting birdshot :ROFLMAO:
