Nothing to exciting here, just took my 2 new Springfield Echelon Pro's to zero and 1st shots.
I got the new Echelon Pro full size, 4.5 and the new Echelon Pro 4.0c. Both replacing the originals I had of both.
Also fitted both with matching Vortex Defender ST enclosed solar micro green dots. Theres a reason I'm saying this.
First the guns...
The Range setup... 5,7,10,15 yards... I prefer to zero dots at 15 yrds.
Like I said, I prefer to zero dots at 15 yrds. I was a little worried when I tried to zero in my full size, I wasn't even hitting the target and the green dot was set to factory default. I had to do the 5, 10, 15 yard zero to finally get the shots on paper. Once on paper the zero was perfect. Now that was with the full Echelon Pro, The same green dot sight ordered and bought at the same time, and put on my 4.0C, was dead center at 15 yrds, no adjustment needed.
I kinda though that was weird, the exact same sights, both shot at the factory default and one was perfect while the other was way off. Not sure what Vortex was doing there.
Anyway both zero'ed at 15 yards...
FULL
4.0c
YES, I was suprised that the 4.0c shot much better and smoother then the full size. I would have thought that the full size gun would of been more accurate.
Just 2 clips of shooting the Full and then the 4.0c...
Thanks for watching... next time the shoot house, steel targets, and dot excercises. These were just the very first shots and zero'ing the guns.
In general, the guns are great, felt good and strong. Shot both defense ammo and ball without an issue in either one.
