I'm not an exceptional shot, but when I was firing a couple of weekends a month, I sometimes got all six shots in a single ragged hole at 25 yards, firing from "offhand."
The primary writer who wrote such tests has used a Ransom Rest and said so.
My results with a S&W M-27 (two different ones), a M-28, a Colt .45 New Service made in the 1930's and a couple of Colt Pythons did those "one ragged hole" groups fairly often.
The most accurate pistol I've owned was a Colt Gold Cup .45 auto. With 230 grain Federal Match loads, it shot groups that I probably shouldn't mention here, lest some cynic tell me that I'm a liar.
I suspect that the OP can't shoot well and hasn't met anyone who could. There are a lot of people like that. That's why you see these "marksmen" brag at indoor ranges about the foot size groups they just shot.. at a target maybe 5-10 yards away!
