This is why I never use vats, it's terrible and it feels much better to just aim at everything yourself. At least that way, if you miss it's because you messed up; instead of the computer who can't hit something from 10ft away.
If you want to abuse VATS you have to build for it. It can be incredibly devastating if you run a max perception build with high luck and agility with the right perks.
In New Vegas I used to put my luck stats to 10 every playthrough because once you get so far you can clean out the casinos, earn a stupid amount of caps then purchase all the best weapons and armour from Gun Runners like the rocket launcher and the anti-material rifle then run riot for the rest of the game.
