what Jim said, 'Minute Of Angle' is the term that is most colloquially used to measure the accuracy of a rifle, if it can throw 3 bullets into a 1 inch circle at 100 yards then it is MOA.

some jokesters like to brag about the accuracy of their guns by stating that their gun is 'minute of soda can' meaning that while it may not be the most accurate rifle ever built it still hits a soda can every shot at 100 yards.

some other common witty terms thrown out about military rifles are:
minute of bad guy
minute of tour bus
minute of tree trunk
minute of milk jug
the list goes one an one.

minute of deer is pretty much what jim layed it out to be, it wont be winning any competition shooting matches but it will serve well enough to kill a few deer.
