My 4 in model 19 smith I have shot to 100 yrds or so, no problem.
Sounds like the OP has never been to a handgun silhouette match, ......practice is the name of the game, and then you really know your gun!!
We are lucky in Saskatoon to have a dedicated silhouette range so I often shoot out to 200, I'm good out to 100 with most of my pistols. At 200 once I'm dialled in I hit the the full size Rams maybe 50/50 with my ruger mk2 of all things.
