Having finished the break-in on my last range visit, it was time to test out some self defense ammo in my CW45.


Remington Ultimate Defense 230 gr JHP, 1st shot @ 10 yards. Ran a whole box w/no issues.


It'll do.

I’d love to do that by my 50th round! Sometimes it’s kinda tough.

My target looks like that with 20 rounds through it. Keep practicing.

Mine look like that too, I just have to make sure the pencil I use to poke the hole doesn't have too much loose lead and leave evidence around the hole.

I tell people that's a powder burn.

Kahr's are very accurate if the shooter does there part.

I like them because of their easier handling & softer shooting than the other compacts & mouse guns. Good quality & bang for the buck, to use the overworked cliché.

Good shot. I'm not sure why but I shoot my CW45 better than most of my other guns. I think its a combination of the grip size and that super smooth trigger that leads to the shots going right where I want them to go.

I struggle hitting the bullseye with my recently aquired hk p30 every time but I can hit the paper plate and after 2000 rounds I can say It has never malfunctioned. Good carry gun.

Try to use more professional terminology. We refer to that as minute of pie plate.

Pfffft. That target looked the same after 120 rounds fired through my CW45.

Of course it probably helped that I took it down and stuck it in my range bag after that shot.

All my Kahrs just shoot very accurately for me. I attribute this to having spent most of my adult life shooting double action revolvers, and also using the bar/dot sights on a Beretta M9.

For a gun that I didn't intend to buy, my CW45 has worked itself right into my carry rotation. It just seems to do everything right with such little effort.

A CW45 has been on my list for quite some time. Many that have them get along really well with them.
I love my PM45 very much but it could use a slightly larger stable mate.

Nice shooting. Save that target picture.

I'm too old/lazy to reload so many years ago I decided to settle on 9mm for range games (IDPA, IPSC, etc.) and for carry. Always impressed by the .45s but not inclined to budge from 9mm.

With all of the modern defensive ammo selections, very effective defensive rounds available in each caliber size.

What kind of pie? Apple? Punkin? Coconut Creme? or my favorite, Pecan!!!

Sorry, the doc has me on a diet and I'm delirious.
