Is there a good EDC that's large enough for accuracy at 30yds?

I've tried a bunch of those compact .380s. I'm not going to say it's all the gun's fault, but I can't hit squat with any of them. I'm of the opinion that the .380 round works well enough at stopping a threat, but the size of the .380 compacts don't lend well to shooting well. The bigger .380s are a lot more accurate, but you might as well go with a 9mm at that point. You want to handle a sweet shooting gun, shoot a M&P EZ .380, but the problem is, it's as big as the 9mm shield.

Upgraded to a M&P Shield in 9mm and couldn't be happier. I can shoot a fairly decent group at 30 yards. Nicest gun for it's size that I have shot, for me personally.

I've never been very accurate with a .380.  The Shield 9mm has been an excellent pistol and is available with or without a manual safety.

My Glock 42 seems to be pretty accurate. The shield is a good gun. I need to pick one up.

I will also vouch for the XDS, I carry one in 9mm, it carrys very well, and Im not afraid to reach out with it... However I will say it would make a hard case if you claimed self defense in having to hit center mass on someone 25-30 yards away
