Your pistol is not shooting badly and neither are you. I don't know how precise your dot or reticle is and a little change there might be all it takes.

Polish the crown of your barrel and see what happens... don't use anything coarser than 600 grit and stop when you get a consistent, bright ring that equally encompasses the lands and grooves. A gunsmith shouldn't charge an arm & leg to do this.

I've used this process to make mediocre guns into good shooters- and really good guns into fantastic shooters. FWIW I used to buy up old Standard models, rebuild the triggers, carefully regulate the sights to 50 yards and then finish with a re-crown. Any of them would stay on a D battery at 50 yards with Federal bulk HP loads, then available by the brick in little red boxes.
