    how can anything be accurate when the measuring devices aren't?

    That's why in the Navy we had to have everything calibrated periodically.
    If an item was out by just a day, we were not allowed to use it.
    Such was the life working on nuclear missile systems.

    My target at 15 yards. 9mm Glock 26.
    Using too much of the end of your finger on the trigger.
    Anticipating recoil.
    Never, under any circumstances, consume a laxative and sleeping pill, on the same night
