Handgun Accuracy

When considering which handgun to purchase, accuracy is an especially important aspect to think about. In order to ascertain what type of handgun to purchase, you must first decide what you will be using it for. For example, if you’re using it for competition shooting, then your gun has to be more accurate than if you’re buying for home defense or just pleasure shooting. Obviously more accuracy is desirable regardless of a gun’s use, but price is also a factor, and handguns with more accuracy are more expensive than those without the same degree of precision.

Accuracy of handguns is typically measured by the proximity of hits at 25 yards. For example, a handgun may have an accuracy guarantee of 1” groups at 25 yards, meaning that when fired by a Ransom machine rest with one of 7 ammunition types, five consecutive shots will be grouped in a size of no more than 1” when shooting at a distance of 25 yards. These accuracies vary with numbers such as 2 ½” at 25 yards and give an idea of what to expect from a handgun. These guarantees don’t mean that you will shoot groups of 1”, since user experience and error affects accuracy.
