Personally, I think most shooters, with practice, can (and should) be proficient enough to be able to pick up their service-sized pistol or revolver and shoot, on demand, honest and consistent slowfire 3-4" 25 yard groups.

I've had bad days I didn't come close to that.

What surprises me most, though, is the willingness many shooters seem to have on forums like this to label any good group as a tall tale or irrelevant, and the shooter a liar and a braggart.

I understand it. If I had someone describe to me some of the shooting I've seen others do, I would at a minimum consider it unlikely. Mix that with a medium in which verification isn't part of the program, and a even mild skeptic can become suspicious.
I shot for a long time before I was good enough for the equipment I was using to matter at all. Back then, I'd have considered 3" at 25 yards to be a near circus trick.
