RE: accuracy of semi-auto?
What kind of terrain are you hunting (location?) and what is your intended game? If you are hunting in the east/south where most shots are under 150 yards it doesn't make a hoot what sort of action you have. But if you are hunting speed goats at 400 yards or wanting to do a little benchrest....you might want to go a different route. Semi's in general are plenty accurate enough to get the job done, just don't expect a one-holer.
