Then why does every other gun I run these in shoot them like tacks?

THAT is my point - If other guns did this - the problem would be obvious. They dont. Ive been using these recipes for years with no issues.
Were any of those other guns shooting your recipe CZ's ?????

The SP01, yes. I have a target that I shot with it, in the box for it. Literally, a half dollar covers it at 20-25 ft

Boesig, whatever you're doing it seems to be getting better. Seems to like the TULA. Those were some nice tight groups.
As most of us have experienced, every gun has it's own personality and favorite ammo.

Most of my stock 9mm CZ's seem to like 124's better than 115gr, and the hotter the better. Although the hot Aguilla and Fiocchi 115's are the exception. My SP-01 is less fussy than my RAMI. YMMV

I just went and shot some of my carry ammo thru it.

Nope. 147gr HST factory ammo. A gun that wont shoot 147s accurately is of no use to me. Im calling CZ tomorrow. This is nonsense.

Target with two groups of HST. just as bad as my 147 reloads.

What seems to be happening -

147gr reloads - awful accuracy (tested accurate in numerous guns)
147 HST factory - awful accuracy tested in countless guns
124 reloads - a bit better, still fair to poor accuracy
115 factory - accurate as it should be.

I dont have any 115s to try and reload, but the HST accuracy is very telling here. I think there's a problem with this gun.

Unless you want to be a bullseye Shooter
3 inch groups in 25 feet is pretty bleep good.

As you know, every gun has it's own personality and ammo preference. Even within the identical model.
Generally, my stock CZ's prefer 124gr. Or, 115's if they're hot like Aguila or Fiocchi. That's with the heavier stock recoil spring. YMMV

Some of your groupings look nice and tight.
It could be a combination of two or more issues; ammo being one.
However, you seem to be dialing it down.

Ive decided to send it to CZ.

Theres no reason I should get the groups I get with 115s while 147s and 124s group the way they do. 25ft is pretty close.

Im no todd jarrett, but I shoot 8" plates all day long with my SP01 with this ammo at 40 yards.

The groups you are seeing with the 115s are how I usually shoot at that distance. The HST (defensive) ammo is extremely accurate stuff, yet it shoots like trash from this gun. Thats a problem to me. Its a threaded gun. What use is it as a host if it only shoots 115s accurately?

147s should NOT be a problem from this gun, and if it were a common problem with the P07, we surely would have heard about it by now. That, coupled with how far the sight is drifted right makes me an unhappy camper and CZ needs to deal with it. This is a super nice gun. I love the thing, but something isnt right here.

I agree this is nonsense - it shouldn't be doing that.  Not at 7-8 yards.

Any time I've returned firearms the manufacturer has provided a PREPAID Fedex shipping label. I drop off at Fedex.
Don't know CZ's policy, as I've never had to send them back a firearm.

You're probably already aware.......It can be a Felony for individuals to improperly ship a firearm, they must go either from a FFL Dealer or Prepaid back by the Factory on their label as the shipper. Of course parts like magazines, barrels or slides don't constitute a firearm. A receiver/frame with trigger mechanism, even without a barrel or slide is considered a firearm.
Do you have the original Warranty Certificate with inspector's name etc.?

Sorry if I'm saying something you already know; but others read these threads too.  Just Say'in.

CZ now covers.  You wlfill out a form online and they send you a label.  Guys in CS told me this week.  They didn't use to!

Ok, I'll just throw this out there...

My SP-01 Tactical started producing flyers last year after about 500 rounds. 

I took the thread protector off and the end of the barrel under it was fouled.  I cleaned it up and polished it really well and it's accuracy came back. 

Just a thought.  Have you checked this?
