    Since I've been shooting ( got my firearms licence in 1988 ) I have seen the acceptable level of accuracy shrink from 1.5 moa to about 1 moa .
    When I say acceptable level of accuracy I mean a level that the writers for gun magazines believe is now the necessary standard and the universal galactic mythical unit of satisfaction .
    I personally find a hunting rifle that puts it's first cold, clean barrel shot within the group of subsequent shots as a more valuable asset than one that shoots groups that are half an inch smaller at 100 yrds but who's first few shot's are not recorded because they are fouling shots and are half an inch left and 1 inch lower .
