Two hands, standing, I shoot about four inch group at 25 yards. A friend bought a Colt 1911, the right model, the right year, blah blah blah and it shot about a 15 inch group at 25 yards. Whoo, the friend was upset (hehe). I was using a 230gr projectile with a light to moderate load. Later he tried 180gr projectiles with a hot load and got about a 4" group and I got the 15" or worse the my Springfield.
So... Even a .45ACP can be fussy about ammo.
Just remembered. What helped me win a comp was shooting 8" steel plates at 50 yards with the 1911. The only other guns in the comp to have that accuracy were revolvers.
