There's your problem. The heavy trigger of the SD tends to cause folks to pull their shots along with the trigger, resulting in low hits.
Try shooting it again, and this time pull the trigger in a quick, deliberate motion as you would if you were actually being charged by a black bear. The SD trigger isn't good for making slow precise shots, the more you try to squeeze the trigger or stage it in attempt to maintain accuracy, the worse it becomes. As the name suggests, the SD is for Self-Defense, not target shooting, so if you want to get the best accuracy out of it, treat every time you take it out shooting as if you're really under attack and don't hesitate when you pull the trigger. Get yourself a target of a fierce bear if it helps.
