    Looking at buying a new EDC and am between two Sig P365X Macro or a Hellcat Pro? Who owns One that could shed some light. I have held both of them at my LGS and like both on how they feel but would like someone to shed some pros or cons of them so I could better make a decision.

    My best suggestion is to see if you can find an opportunity to shoot them both and compare. Buy the one you feel most comfortable with. Many gun shops with a range have rental guns; why not call a few and ask if these models are available to rent. Conversely you can ask folks here if anyone would like to meet up with you at a range so you can shoot theirs. People here are super friendly for the most part and you may find someone willing to do this. Food for thought.

    Like cheesy said, even if you have to spend a little money to shoot both at a range. I was fortunate enough to know someone with both and settled on the Hellcat because I felt like I had better control. I never felt like I could get a decent grip on the sig. they both seemed to perform well though.

    Why the Macro over the XL or the regular 365?

    I would urge you to go by FRC in BR and see if they have the above for rent. With the Macro being relatively new, I'm not sure they'll have it, but you could drop a call and ask.

    Yea, I have shot a hellcat before and really liked it but I’m intrigued with the new 365x macro with 17 round magazine. I’m gonna call around and see if I can rent a macro or an sig p365 xl to get a feel. Thanks everyone.

    Hold the pistol as you would shoot it with your index finger laying along barrel. Pick a spot on the wall as your target and as you bring it up close your eyes and point finger at target. the 1 with sights aligned with target is the 1 you want.

    I have held both. I went with the Hellcat. It seems to shoot really well for it's size. I also have a xds 3.3 9mm from about 6 years ago, I am a fan of the Croatian Springfields.

    I have had both. The Sig is about as perfect as you can get for anEDC. High capacity, low footprint and reliable. I sold my Hellcat after one trip to the range with the X macro.

    If you’re close to Baton Rouge I have a 365 with the grip mod to accept the 12rd mags. Basically makes it same grip length as the xl we can meet at a range so you can shoot it. (Bring your ammo)
