What is the drop of a 9mm bullet out of my xdm 5.25 shooting factory loads with 124gr bullets, it is dead on at 25 yards and i practice a lot with it at that distance... just for fun after i shot slugs at 50 and 100 yards the other day i put my 9 on the rest and aimed about a foot high at fifty yards and 2 feet high at 100... i didnt get any hits.. so i was wondering what is the general bullet path of 9mm out to 100 yards?

Can't say for sure without knowing more about your ammo specifically, but I would guess you shot right over your target. Handgun rounds don't drop as much as everybody seems to think. Try aiming dead on and you will be surprised how flat it shoots.

I held right at the collarbone area for hits on steel torso at 100 meters (Damned commie metric system. We need to go to it.) with my M9 using 124 gr 9mm NATO.

I have the same gun. Mine is 2" at 50yds and about 7" at 100yds and for funzies about 5 feet at 300yds will hit the full sized targets at USSA.
