Accuracy can only be achieved by practice. Practice with the load that you carry, i.e. very expensive. Carry the best load you can accurately shoot with. All the ballistics and paper races mean nothing if you can't hit what you're shooting at. Remember that in a combat situation the likelihood that your target will stand backlit and still are zero to nil. So second shots, muzzle flash, and recoil do matter in combat situations. Just because someone can cycle a few magazines thru their weapon at the range doesn't mean they are ready to defend themselves in a panic situation. Practice, practice, practice. It will likely be dark. It will likely be scary. It will certainly be loud. Are you sure you still want that big heavy unruly handgun you've only shot at the range a few times a few times a year to defend yourself with loads designed to down elephants in Zaire???? Think about it.
