You`ve always got a negative remark to say on most of your posts. You`re one of those long time members that think you operate this forum. Well I`ve got news for you, YOU DON`T. So if you don`t have a comment dealing with the question and are only here antagonize people,skip over my threads if you don`t mind.

I actually though he was being very polite. He also made some good points. Old poster, new poster, doesn't matter rude is rude and calling people liars without all the facts is rude any way ya slice it. It's not your message, it's your delivery.

This thread started out a little aggressively - -

- - And went downhill. It is a given that some shooters are more accurate than others. Some pistols are more accurate than others. A good shooter with a poor pistol may do fairly well. A poor shooter with an excellent pistol may or may not do fairly well. Then a superb shooter can have a bad day, while a very mediocre one can have a phenomenally good day.

It's a little like me telling everyone about the times I shot sub-half-inch groups at 100 yards with my .257 Roberts. Absolutely true - - About twice over the past 20 years. I CANNOT do it on demand. I can usually shoot a one inch group with that rifle and my best handloads, but that's about all I can claim with a straight face.

There are so many variables, it is a little difficult to make a sweeping, overall statement. One generalization that can be made, though - - When the "big boys" hold a bullseye pistol match, the winning targets will hold groups closer to two inches than three at 25 yards, officially measured. Now, these are slowfire stages, but the shooters are standing on their hind legs, shooting one-handed. And, no, this kind of accuracy is NOT NEEDED for survival shooting "in real life," but it indicates what CAN be done on a regular basis.

Anyway, this thread is about done.

CLOSED.
