\u201cElite\u201d has become a popular buzzword these days. Everyone either wants to be elite or hate anyone or anything that is elite. But to abide by the dictionary, one of the principle meanings of the word is simply, \u201cthe best of a class\u201d. I can\u2019t think of a better description for the SIG Sauer P220 Match Elite in 10mm.<\/p>\n

\"Sig<\/a>

SIG Sauer knows how to build a handsome handgun. The reverse two-tone of the P220 Elite 10mm is very striking.<\/p><\/div>\n

To say that the SIG Sauer P220 is a classic is an understatement. The P220 line is generally considered solely responsible for the success of, and very likely the very existence of today\u2019s SIG Sauer. Though often eclipsed by its sibling P226 series, there is still a place for the single-stack workhorse among the larger capacity rivals from within and without SIG. One such example, for this author \u2013 is with the chambering in 10mm. Although the decimal caliber is enjoying a bit of resurgence of late, it is still a fairly exotic chambering, as witnessed by the slight number of firearms offered in it. Initially selected by the FBI for its agents\u2019 duty guns, it was deemed \u201ctoo hot to handle\u201d, and when the feds swore off of it, it faded into obscurity. Of course, obscurity is not oblivion \u2013 and the ten millimeter cartridge has always had a dedicated congregation, particularly amongst handgun hunters. SIG Sauer offers the P220 in 10mm two different ways: The P220 Hunter, which is an SAO pistol clad in Kryptec camo finish and designed with hunters in mind; and the P220 Match Elite which is a reversed two-tone of stainless and Nitron finish. The latter of these was supplied to GunsAmerica \u2013 and I\u2019ve been quite eager to test it.<\/p>\n

\"Sig<\/a>

Fit and finish is superb, and the SIGnature controls functioned perfectly. Magazine catch is large and easy, and drops \u2018em free every time.<\/p><\/div>\n

The Match Elite is a very traditional SIG Sauer pistol, in DA\/SA with the familiar hammer decocker. Its profile is pure SIG, except that the accustomed eye will immediately notice the additional length of the gun. The 10mm pistol is about 5\/8\u201d longer than the normal \u2018full size\u2019 model, due to the 5\u201d barrel (versus the 4.4\u201d standard). The frame size remains the same, which gives the P220 10mm a bit of a long-slide appearance. Combined with the signature extended beavertail of the Elite models, it is a distinctly long handgun.<\/p>\n

\"Sig<\/a>The reverse two-tone styling is quite fetching to this writer\u2019s eye, well complemented by the G10 grips that add not just looks but very practical control to the pistol. The gun is topped off with SIG\u2019s SIGLITE night sights, consisting of a three-dot combat setup with Tritium for self-powered illumination. The sights are steel and in traditional SIG design, the rear sight can be used to run the slide against a belt or boot.\u00a0 Because this is an Elite model, it also includes the SIG Short Reset Trigger (SRT), which makes the forward stroke required to reset the trigger a mere twitch.<\/p>\n

SHOOTING THE P220 MATCH ELITE<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If you have never fired the 10mm round, you may not understand the significant difference in recoil it bears from that of calibers like .40 and .45. The pressures are considerably higher, and with the \u201chot rounds\u201d from makers like Buffalo Bore and Underwood, it can be a handful. SIG\u2019s own V-Crown load in 10mm is a rather potent one. This is where you begin to appreciate the nearly 3 lbs. of substance that this handgun has. That heft soaks up a good bit of the energy, and combined with the tough recoil spring it keeps the experience rather pleasant. Because a large amount of the pistol\u2019s weight is the stainless steel frame, the muzzle lift is surprisingly controlled and the recoil impulse is a smoother rolling action than the whipsaw you can get when all the energy is focused in the slide.<\/p>\n

\"Sig<\/a>

There is an undeniable elegance to this reverse two-tone pistol. But don’t let its refinement fool you. It packs a punch!<\/p><\/div>\n

The ergonomics of the P220 Match Elite is also another reason the gun is so much fun to shoot, no matter how snappy the ammo. The extended upward-sweeping beavertail encourages the shooter to take a high hold on the pistol, and the well undercut trigger guard makes it feel natural. The checkering on the front strap and the aggressive G10 grips keep your hold in place even as you watch the front sight rise out of view and fall back again. This makes your follow-up shots stay on target, even in rapid succession. I even forget what a powerhouse round I\u2019m shooting, until I have to walk 15 yards to pick up my spent brass!<\/p>\n

In my personal collection, I have several SIG Sauer products \u2013 some with the SRT and some without. I prefer those that have this fantastic trigger system. In traditional DA\/SA mode the first shot is a heavier pull that cocks the hammer prior to dropping it onto the firing pin, and each subsequent shot is pre-cocked by the reciprocation of the slide \u2013 making them single action. SIGs double-action trigger is lighter than many and very smooth and consistent through the full range of motion. The SRT provides a reset that is between 1\/16 \u2013 1\/8\u201d and from that reset point there is no creep or take-up. This trigger system gives maximum advantage whether you are taking slow carefully aimed shots, or putting triple-taps downrange during drills. I measured the double-action pull at 10 lbs., 6 oz. and the single action pull at a crisp 5 lbs., 3 oz. A good trigger isn\u2019t just about having fun with rapid shots, it allows you to be a better shooter by removing unnecessary jerking, pushing, or pulling that are as annoying as a golfer\u2019s slice and can be just as hard to correct.<\/p>\n

\"Sig<\/a>

The receptacle for the single-stack 8 round magazine is slightly beveled. The G10 grip adds a little extra funnel.<\/p><\/div>\n

But when it comes to a handgun like this P220 Elite, it is all about accuracy. I find the SIG P Series pistols easy to shoot accurately in general, and this 5-incher is a dream. It has good balance, especially considering the weight. The sights are easy to pick up and align, and also very easy to keep on target. The \u201cfit\u201d of the front blade into the rear notch leaves little air space, which I like for relaxed target shooting. A tight six o\u2019clock hold at around 10 yards does the trick, and the inherently accurate 10mm rounds just start eating a hole in the target.<\/p>\n

\"Sig<\/a>ACCURACY<\/strong><\/h2>\n

To test the accuracy of any handgun, I am constantly looking for ways to take myself out of the equation as much as possible. One such element is trying to hold a precise and consistent aim point for each shot. That\u2019s harder than is seems \u2013 and if you\u2019ve taken slow shots at a 25 yard target you know what I mean. I stop short of investing in a Ransom Rest or similar machine because I think a degree of the human element is still important. So, my newest compromise was to use a scope \u2013 a 4x scope, at that. This allowed me to use my standard rest but hold a pinpoint aim that was very consistent for every shot. I think the results show the capabilities of this handgun. 10mm is a preferred hunting handgun round not just for its power, but also for its accuracy.<\/p>\n

Even off-hand at 10 yards with just the iron sights, I was able to make \u201calmost all holes touching\u201d groups with even the hottest loads, like Underwood and Hornady. Bulk buy ammo that I obtained from LAX and use for \u201crange practice\u201d also performed excellently.<\/p>\n

There is no doubt that if you take the time to match the optimal ammunition to the Match Elite for the distance you intend to shoot, say 100 yards, it would be a reliable hunting weapon. As with most guns I shoot \u2013 it is capable of far better accuracy that I can produce with it. But something about the P220 Match Elite helps me to shoot my best.<\/p>\n

JUST MY OPINION<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Almost every time I pick up a handgun my mind instantly puts it into a bucket. Carry gun\u2026 competition gun\u2026 duty gun\u2026 etc. However, this P220 Match Elite 10mm is one of those odd birds that doesn\u2019t just drop neatly into a bucket. But you certainly don\u2019t want to use a phrase that rhymes with \u201cbucket\u201d, because for this writer it is a gun that is worth having simply for its own sake. Perhaps, if there is such a term \u2013 \u201cpractical collector\u201d would be the target market. And if that wasn\u2019t a term, I just coined it and will wait for the royalties to roll in \u2013 cue the Daffy Duck clip. But seriously, this is one that does honor to a collection of fine handguns just as well as it sits proudly alongside the ones that keep your family safe or put venison on the table. It\u2019s a handsome pistol, but no safe queen. SIG built this gun to be shot. And a shooter it is! The finish might be a bit flashy for some hunters, but certainly the guy who carries the nickel plated .44 Magnum won\u2019t mind it. Using a universal mount as I did for the accuracy testing, one can easily mount a quality scope or electronic optic on the gun.<\/p>\n

\"Sig<\/a>

The quality of the materials and workmanship are pure Sig Sauer.<\/p><\/div>\n

10mm power is certainly adequate for even larger game. So it can easily be a hunter\u2019s pistol. But of course, SIG equipped it with their SIGLITE night sights \u2013 and some V-Crown 10mm would make a damned fine self-defense load. So, keeping this beauty in the nightstand or on the hip would make fine sense. Downside for that application is capacity. The P220 is after all, a single-stack handgun. The magazines hold only eight rounds. Just like another very popular 5\u201d all steel handgun \u2013 and folks have been \u201cmaking do\u201d with that one for over a century now. So I don\u2019t rule it out over capacity complaints. And the P220 adds the benefit of the DA\/SA trigger design that requires no external manual safety. As far as wearing it on the hip, don\u2019t expect to be concealing it under light clothing, unless you were the biggest kid on your football team.<\/p>\n

\"Sig<\/a>

Fieldstrip for the P220 Match Elite is standard procedure. The full-length rails offer a very stable platform.<\/p><\/div>\n

I put a few hundred rounds through this pistol over multiple range trips and never experienced a hint of a problem. Fed, fired, and ejected everything like a precision machine. There are plenty of good reasons to own the P220 Match Elite in 10mm, and a few reasons not to. But in the end, for me at least, it comes down to this: This is the gun you treat yourself to. Justify that however you must, but owning this firearm would simply scream, \u201cserious gun guy here!\u201d.<\/p>\n
