Sig p226 shoots low 12 inches at 30 feet

My P226 Platinum elite is a 6 o’clock hold. My P226 Legion is combat sight hold.

If you still have your original sight, I’d love it if you’d measure it. That seems way off compared to this article, that says the height difference between a #6 & #9 is 0.015”. A 14” correction over 7 yds would need about 1/4” in FSP height change (just ballpark math).

FYI Repete has a career shooting as well as as a retirement shooting, he knows how to shoot.

I'm just trying to learn and was confused trying to reconcile how a 0.015" FSP height difference is supposed to result in a 14" POI change at 7 yds. Sig Sauer says moving from #6 to #9 FSP should result in a 3" change in POI at 25 yds. Straight from a Sig poster. 1" per number at 25 yds. The RSP is 2" per number at 25 yds. They designed the sights that way. RePete's description and Sig's info don't line up. I wanted clarification and well..... "whatever".

Get an experienced shooter to shoot it. Or spend $100 and get a Gunsmith to check it out.
Experienced shooter only costs you $20 to $30 in Ammo.
