Is Firefly ruining the precision kill over non precision kill ratio for the ace of spades?

Sorry for the long title, I'll try to cut right to the chase. On my actual profile (Princess Ty Lee) my hunter just got the Ace of Spades. Quite frankly I'm a fing precision kill junkie with that weapon and I make sure at least 95% of my kills are precision kills but for some odd reason it only says 75% of my kills with that weapon are precision kills. I also noticed that often I kill a whole cluster of ads a lot with the firefly blast radius damage. I hate to sound like a noob but I never really figured this out, nor did I pay attention to my stats because this was one of the first games I had gotten (I'm 17 years old so don't try to run around calling me a nine year old) so I really didn't understand how this worked, or that I could use the internet to help you since this game frankly doesn't tell you shit on how to play or what anything actually means. (That's one long ass sentence, sorry.) Good day, guardians. [spoiler]My punctuation might not be to superb in this due to the fact that I just woke up. My apologies [/spoiler]

    Firefly wouldn't be your problem. There's a split second delay in your kill before the explosion, so the explosion can't deal damage to your target. If you were firing on a group of thrall, and got four thrall with the explosion, that's one precision kill and four regular kills. Another problem is that hand cannons are experiencing phantom bullets. [spoiler]and I gotta say it's sad how much you have to say in defense when you get to the point. Community can be a real pain in the ass.[/spoiler]

    • So you honestly think that 19 of 20 (95%) kills are precision, and you're being cheated by the stats? Odds are better you're just getting as many precision kills as you think.

      • Because you not getting as many precision kills as you thought is totally not a possibility or anything.
