I have a glock 19. If I shoot 115 grn I'm always down to the left on 15 and 25 yard targets. When I shoot 124 grn I'm just about dead on, a little to the left but I think that's because I'm left eye dominant and right handed. So I have always been shooting 124 grn.

I just started re-loading and am using 124 grn. Once again I'm shooting down to the left. So I am now confused as how I should compensate. Re-adjust my trigger finger or try less powder in my load. My concern with less powder is I already had 2 out of 100 rounds fail to eject, I'm afraid if I cut back on powder I will have ejection issues.

Thanks for any advice.

I agree it's something to do with "me". I'm just confused as to why 115 is off, factory 124 I'm good and re-loaded 124 I'm off.

Is 9mm your only caliber and do you only have one firearm? What I mean is do you do this with only one of your firearms and only in 9mm?

I know many who shoot .45acp much better than they can shoot 9mm and both are the same weapon system. Whether it be Sig or Glock to name the 2 systems in question.. They simply shoot the bigger and more recoil heavy round better.

Some Instruction Points

It's a target, there's a right hand and left hand version. It will help you get a basic understanding of some common errors shooters make when making their shots.

I also sent Hodgon (powder I'm using) to see if they can help me adjust my load.

I shoot 115gr copper plated (CMJ) projectiles from Frontier in my G19 and G34. I use AP70N which is equivalent to Hodgson universal.

Load is 4.65gr

Im not an accurate shooter by far (not competition accurate anyway) and at 25 yards the G34 will do 6" groups on the black.

The G19 ive recently sighted in with Glock adjustable sights and its good for 6" groups at 15 yards.

I was shooting low and left with the stock fixed sights as well.

I put night sites on and got rid of the standard sites a couple of years ago. That did make a big difference. I have Hodgon hs-6 which appears to use a different weight then universal.

I just find it strange that with 115 I'm low to the left, with 124 I'm accurate.
