Well now I did say accurate, but to what degree is up for debate. I would not expect a Dangerous Game Rifle (DGR) to be a 1/2 MOA shooter, but if it was it would not hurt my feelings. Yes it must be reliable too, but if you can't hit the broadside of a barn (or buffalo) then I guess you can hope to scare it to death, maybe. :)

That why I said that one is as important as the other. Got to have both, no comprimises for me.

Sounds like the guy from your camp had more money than common sense. Accuracy is great but the reliablity must be there to. Gotta have both.
