Terrible for what? I can hit a man at 20 yards with .45 with mine, thus I can do the same with it out to 50 probably with the longer barrel. I would shoot infrequently, it's to check a box on my list, don't have a long barrel DA .45 Colt and am not asking for heirloom quality or match grade accuracy.
That is terrible accuracy in my opinion.

Longer barrel will rarely make a gun more accurate. Yes, it may be easier for you to shoot accurately, but an extra 3" of barrel length will not cut your group size in half.

If anything, the shorter cylinder might, in theory, provide better accuracy than the longer cylinder.

Since you already own one, you know the strengths and weaknesses. For 45 Colt use, I would suggest the shorter cylinder.
