When I did my military service back in 1972/73 we had 2 pieces of 88 mm guns from WWII, they were still the most accurate guns at that time. We also had the M109's with 155 mm guns, but they were howitzers and used for other purposes.
Some 40 years old at that time, the 88 mm's hardly ever missed their target...
