Freebore,
I have a friend that brought out an SKS he wanted to use for a deer rife. We got it to shoot gruops of abt. 3 1/2 moa. and he thought that was great. I, being more like you though he was crazy and pointed out to him that those were crappy groups. His reply was that, this is a deer rifle that will never shot at a deer more than 75 yrds. away and at that range that`s a heart shot every time.
To stay below 1/2 moa it is usually nessary to do alot more case prep than most shooters are willing to and most shooters can get by very well with guns that shoot 2 moa. BR competors of coarse need gun that shoot much better than 1/2 moa on a clam day or they can stay home. Serious pd shooters need at least 1/2 moa accuracy for long shots, but big game rifle need not shot that acurately as their targets are larger and closer.
