Ammunition Not much can be said about ammunition. Obviously, you will need the proper ammunition for the pistol you'll use. This is manufactured under high standards and is more accurate for competitive shooting. In many cases, hand-loaded ammunition is more accurate than commercially produced match grade ammunition. If you use the hand-load route, be sure to follow all safety precautions.
All target pistols come with an adjustable rear sight.
This is a must. However, various brands of adjustable sights are available, some better made than others. Experience will tell which one is better for you. Optical and electronic sights are available and currently allowed in NRA Conventional Pistol competition. They are not recommended for the new shooter who is still mastering the fundamentals of sight alignment, which is absolutely necessary for a champion shooter.
