To address the accuracy question, for legit long range at 1000 yards I want to see 2-3 shots under 5 inches, I have guns that will shoot in the 3 inch range. I don't care about more than the first shot and a follow up, this gun is not designed for groups though built to BR specs their not BR chamberings.
I've missed two times the first year I truly long range hunted, a miss when hunting means we're done shooting and I'm spending the rest of the day walking and figuring out what happened and then taking another shot to verify the lesson.
The follow up shot is just to know it's there, I have used it once on the first bull I took at true long range, first round wrecked him but held his feet so second one broke shoulders.
I do plot all my hits on game, I mark shot hold, placement and exit.
