Pity canon has him doing both of these.
He stops a railgun shot.
He blocks some of the Aoe of the Gravity bomb. And telepathy. And the radiant heat from Innocentus and him blocking some of the AoE is the simplest explanation for his survival of the thermobaric explosion in the railyard.
It doesn't help that Touma doesn't know what Imagine Breakers limits are. He just knows his right hand is a focus for it. Observation suggests it sometimes does more than his quick description suggests it should.

Apart from being half dead from the incident on the bridge and Accelerator's tendancy to spam multiple projectiles at a time. Both of which may have reduced his ability to cope.
I'll point out that Accelerator didn't seem to get a solid hit in despite throwing more than a little in that fight. Either Touma dodged them all or he dodged most and blocked others.
