Or it's an aggregated average over many shots, simulated using a random number seeder with the probability distribution matching the stated %s.

Do you get heads when you flip a coin every other time? The more flips you perform the more likely you are to have a series of flips whose average outcome is 1/2 heads 1/2 tails, but you may get (un)lucky and flip heads 13 times in a row. Remember the coin has no memory of how many heads or tails came before, each flip is an independant experiment.

Only in the limit is probability certain about the % of outcomes as they fall into the alloted possibilities. Although we may see the behaviour of the limit with a reasonable sample size, we are never guarenteed to.
