I went shooting with a friend, and after shooting some drills, we closed out with a competition. Rules are simple. 25 rounds, 5 at 5 yards, 10 at 15 yards, and 10 at 25 yards. A hit in the X or 10 ring are worth 10 points, hits in the 9 ring are worth 9, etc. Max of 250. Number of hits in the X ring are the tiebreaker if needed. He shot his M9, and I shot his M&P Shield 45, which I had only put 12 rounds through right before this competition. Needless to say I am very impressed with this little gun. I had previously shot a XDs in 45, absolutely hated it, and figured the Shield would be just like it. I was definitely wrong. Results are below. I won by 2 points
