ECO range report

[Damon216]

I just picked up the ECO in 45 and will give a report (and pics) shortly. Mine shot low... really low. I am talking about 6" at 7 yards. My second trip to the range concluded it was the shooter (me). My first time shooting a 1911 and am muscling the trigger and nose diving the barrel (I normally shoot a DA GP-100).

With some conscious trigger training and having a POA about 2" above the bulls eye put shoots dead center. I would like to get a lower front site...Anyone suggest and aftermarket site?

Only thing I noticed is that the POI is about two inches lower than POA at 15 yards off had. I checked my sights with a laser boresight and the sights are spot on with the laser at up to 60 feet. I wonder if this has to do with the ammo? I didn't have any store bought loads to try, next time I'll try some factory stuff. Grouping was great after I figured out where they were hitting. I ended up with a nice ragged hole when I was done. I'm going to make the ECO my EDC so more range time is coming soon.
I seem to have trouble with short sight radius 3 and 3.5" barrels. My Sig P250SC 40cal is short and I have a tendency to dip the muzzel. I don't do that on longer barrels. I've got to work on that I suppose. Up shot is that means more practice, which means I get to shoot more Could be worse.
