9mm accuracy cont..
Why are threads closed? Anyway, I agree with the Sig comments, for I shoot pretty well with mine . I also shoot extremely well with my high-power, which I carry as often as I can. Yes, .40s and .45s have great stopping power, but none of this matters if you have already been shot. Granted, I am not extensively schooled in the history of each caliber, but I am inclined to believe that most accuracy relies on the shooter first and then the firearm. Provided the shooter is a good one, the equipment is on "time" (right twist, good condition, etc...), and all other variables are accounted for, I would venture to say that most calibers are equal in terms of accuracy. I would be willing to bet that a 9mm and a 45ACP would fair exactly the same in an indoor, controlled experiment. If you hit where you aim once, you should do so again. Reasons why you wouldn't are #1) You #2) Your gun #3) A bad load. Simple laws of physics tell you that the exact same round won't suddenly change the way it reacts to its enviornment, unless its enviornment changes. (Or the round isn't exactly the same.This was a very interesting thread. My complements, Shootist, on a damn good argument. Thanks for all the input gang. BTW, my complements and $.60 will get you a coke-a-cola.

I enjoyed the topic also. BTW, just to respond to a comment about the less than optimum groups that I get with my 9mm carbines, I believe it's my fault, not the carbines or 9mm ammo.PS -- My experience with this forum is that the moderator closes the topics when they get 10-15 replies or the moderator thinks the question has been sufficiently answered. I don't know why, but it's his prerogative. 0
