How do you group at 50 yards?

Shot with the sheriff at 50 yards with a standard bulls eye target, 8" black bull.

I was using my NM 1911A1 with 230 gr hardball ammo and he was using a S&W model 60 but with 38 spcl 158 gr LRN ammo that I had on hand and not his carry load of 125 gr SJSP 357 magnums. He was a big man, about 6'6" or 6'7" and that tiny little gun looked like a derringer would have in my hand. Try as we might we could not out shoot each other and it was points to him that he did it with that tiny 2" barrel against my match pistol. Proved the point it isn't the gun but who is holding it. I'm glad the two of us got along.
 
5 shots, 50 yrds, 22 short.

And the rig that does it.

Offhand with my 4" Security Six, paper plate. But give the gun a good rest and my 180gr. XTP handloads and it's will punch sub 2" groups at 50 yards. Smallest has been 1 1/4".
