Despite the the long distances we were shooting, I shot most of those guns from a sitting position without a bipod or anything like that, but it faired at least as well as the rest. If I were looking to have my own semi-auto, the cx-4 would be on my short-list.

A 9mm carbine accurate at 300 yards? Please tell me that's not the distance you were evaluating that gun at. If so, I'm going to have to say

I once killed a badger with a shotgun.

I don't claim to be a gun expert. The metal targets we were shooting at were about 300 yards away. Sometimes I hit the plates. Mostly I missed. I wasn't out there to do "evaluations". I just went to shoot some cool guns. Now I'm not so sure why I bothered to answer your initial question in the first place.

I apologize for coming off that way. It's just that a 9mm carbine being accurate at 300 yards seems nigh on impossible. It's a pistol cartridge, they aren't made to shoot accurately past about 75-100 yards so to hear that they were accurate at 300 yards seems far fetched (hence the lame bs flag).

Honestly, I'm interested in how this performed. If you were hitting the target at 300 yards with the 9mm then that's very impressive. Could please tell me the size of the target you were aiming at?
