Accuracy is WAY OVERATED in hunting rifles. I have been hunting deer for thirteen years, and out of all the deer I have killed, only three have been over 100 yards away. All this obsession with accuracy was perpetrated by the gun magazines, simply as a reason to say one rifle was better than another. Fact is, accuracy isn't even really that important in a hunting rifle, especially considering virtually any rifle on the market will do 2.5 MOA at 100 yards. This is more than enough accuracy for the common man. Now, there are extremes, but most of them can be made up by good hunting skills. Its more important to learn how to shoot under field conditions, not to see how well you can shoot off of a bench under ideal conditions.
