According to the article on hunting rifle accuracy, what is the expected MOA for a lever action gun?

The expected MOA (Minute of Angle) for a lever action gun is commonly understood to be around 6 MOA. This measurement reflects the general accuracy that can be achieved with this type of firearm under typical conditions. Lever action rifles are often designed for quick follow-up shots and versatility in various hunting situations, rather than extreme precision over long distances, resulting in a wider acceptable accuracy range compared to other types of rifles. Therefore, the 6 MOA standard indicates that a lever action rifle, at 100 yards, would typically group shots within a 6-inch diameter circle. This makes it suitable for hunting scenarios where quick target acquisition and moderate range shooting are more critical than pinpoint precision.
