Hi all,

What can I do about the above? Shooting Hornady 10mm 180gr XTP factory ammo. Shoots 4-6 high. Is this normal? How can I rectify this?
Would appreciate any advice.
Leon

Shooting high at what range? I consider the 180 to be a bit light for the 10mm. I shoot 200 grain bullets exclusively in my 10mm, both cast lead and jacketed. My gun, EAA Witness Elite has fully adjustable sights and I had no problem getting the sights adjusted for 25 and 50 yards with my accuracy loads which are also my hunting loads.

Added. it just occurred to me that I shoot a 6 o'clock hold, so the POI is higher than the POA. Sorry about that!

Higher front sight is the normal cure. Or one could try a different bullet.

I have some one else try it also.

I will add that you could try a lighter bullet. I have some 155gr. JHPs that I have shot in my 40 but not in my 10mm.
