When Dean Grennell and Wiley Clapp evaluated the P7s they were testing at 25 yards from bench rest and getting 2.75" groups with Winchester Silvertips and 3.25" with Federal 115gr
Eh...so did they conclude it was an accurate or inaccurate gun? A gun that shoots 3" from a bench rest is the latter, in my book. I'd expect a P7 to be much more accurate.

As to the OP's P7, I suggest having someone else, who you know to be a good shot, shoot it. Try a variety of ammo as well.

with its short sight radius and unique mechanicals, it will be ruthlessly revealing of any flaws the user inputs.
This has been my (albeit it limited) experience with the P7. I've shot one a few times. The first, like any new gun, I paid particular attention to the fundamentals, and was astounded by it's accuracy. But I quickly got cocky, I guess, and subconsciously a hair less rigid with the fundamentals, and the groups quickly opened up.
