They are accurate enough for long distance shooting. On a recent Shooting USA episode, Bob Munden broke a balloon at 200yds with one. (Of course, he was also shown breaking thrown clay targets with a .45 Colt derringer.)
I have to agree with you.....S&W snubs are very capable of being accurate at some distance. I can regulary hit a 8"plate at around 10-12 yards with my little 642 using fairly hot defensive ammo. I am really not a great shot and have very little practice with small revolvers. I have no doubt that they will do their part if we do ours.
