Thread: Is the standard for a hunting rifle 1.5 moa?

Any rifle capable of 2moa will take a goat at 300 mtr and thats further than >95% of hunters ever shoot.
Lots of basic lever guns straight from the box 20,30, hell 50 years old are taking deer every year so don't get hung up on it.

See it as a challenge for yourself. My 243 bolt is easy sub moa and I hardly use it as its too easy.
My lever should get moa but I'm often 2moa or worse as it requires much more attention to detail, hold, hand position, sling, butt tension into my shoulder etc.
Hence I use it way more but some times I would love to sit down on a bench with a good front and rear bag to see what it can do.
