I have posted a question similar before, but now I am getting closer to defining my needs and narrowing down my choices. Thanks for your patience.
I am looking at purchasing a 9mm for the primary purpose of target shooting. I am not a competitor in the sense of organized events, but I still want to shoot the tightest groups I can. The reasons I want a 9mm are, simply because I don't have one, they are fairly easy to shoot, and ammo is much cheaper than 40 or 45.
If I had my complete choice, I would go with the Sig 210, but budget will not allow. The Ruger 95DC was highly recommended to me, but I am unfamiliar with it. Also recommended was the Glock 34 or 17, and Sig 228. The Sig 226 has too large a grip for my hand. Each is within my budget.
My questions are 1) Is the Ruger known for high levels of accuracy and if so, is the 95DC up to that level and 2) Which would _YOU_ choose for the above purpose? Are there any others I should be looking at?
Self defense is only marginally a consideration as I have that covered with others. This is just a fun gun, but I can't have fun if I'm not making center shots.
Thanks for any help.
