    ' how much accuracy do you need & what are you doing with it ' should be a part of this decussion

    so often there is an over emphasis on how much accuracy you need, the most accurate is the best etc . . . but from practical hunting an honest 1.0 MOA is more than enough to get the job done at normal or out to extended ranges (200-300 yards ) on small game with .22lr.

    while it is nice to have more you dont need it . . . unless your a target shooter/paper puncher

    I reckon fine accuracy makes a 22 a much more useful training tool...the difference between 1/2 and 1 moa is me being sloppy...
