I'm thinking that his concern is about the sights shooting to the point of aim. There's no guarantee about it shooting to point of aim without buying a gun that has adjustable sights.
Sometimes the load and bullet weight and type will make a difference with the point of impact.
And loading with some dirty powders will likely degrade accuracy after a number of shots.
AFAIK no other powders will shoot as clean as smokeless powders do.
But even the cheapest guns will shoot fairly accurately except that the sights may not shoot as close to the point of aim.
Paper target shooters often prefer the target model guns having an adjustable rear sight for a reason.
After buying enough guns that don't shoot to point of aim, folks start to switch to guns having an adjustable rear sight, to make up for the really bad ones that won't shoot to point of aim with their loads.
