Good shooting

I checked John Walters book "The Luger Story" out of the library. At the start of chapter 15 he talks about a Heinrich Kelleter who scored a 559 X 600 firing at a 8cm diameter bullseye from 50 metres. In one of his 10 shot strings all struck the top half of the bullseye. Am I reading this right? 50 metres is about 164 feet. 8 cm is just a little over 3 inches. Is it possible to shoot this good offhand? He was using a 6 inch barrel with fixed sights. Pretty impressive.
