A few questions though...

Have you changed handgund types within the past several years? Naot a major issue if you are tuned in right, but grip angles can affect things.

One static distance for all shots? or varying (3-25yds?) moving? type of target?
From the ready? holstered? you see the drift here...? I call it chasing the zero, where on some qual targets, the large 5 ring zone offers a large point of aim, and hence a large varied grouping of shots.

Try some drills from the ready on some 3x5 cards from the 5, working back to the 10yd lines at 1 yd intervals.
SGMCat,

I'm guessing this officer is asking "us" a question for a reason.
Might be that we go head to head with dozens of heavily armed terrorists on a regular basis. Might be because we're constantly attending classified shooting schools. I don't know. But do me a favor and wait. Wait until we've taken a look and accessed this officers skills before you decide to offer your opinion.
