Okay, after 440 rounds the SIG P250 is going back. It did okay this afternoon with some Magtech 180 grain FMC, but when I switched to Fiocchi 170 grain FMJTC it was horrible. Nearly half the rounds would not feed and even manual coaxing often failed, requiring me to drop the magazine and hand-feed the round.

On the other hand, I got my Ruger New Vaquero back Tuesday and also shot it today. That was a wonderful experience. Shooting Black Hills 250 grain RNFP (bare lead) I consistently shot groups under 6" across at 25 meters, from a rest. Often better than that, with several bullseyes. The cylinder pin stayed firmly in place the whole time. This gun is so good I'm actually tempted to put a scope on it. If I can shoot that well with the crude iron sights...
