No, I said that. But those "base accuracies" are, as I've said, long-term averages. It's quite possible that any given ship, even an RN BC, could shoot rather better than that for a while, or for even the historically best ship to shoot considerably worse for a while. That happened in real life. Do you have Campbell's
Jutland: An Analysis of the Fighting? This books tracks nearly every shell, at least between capital ships. You can see this sort of time-based streakiness in there.
