Bring me up to date, I haven't shot Long Range in some time.
On Baen's Bar there was a link to the usual inane YouTube oohing and aahing over the Hungarian GM6 Lynx Bullpup .50 BMG (or 12.7mm) long recoil semiautomatic.

To which a couple of Barflies commented:
"At 1k, with standard Ball or Tracer, I can put 5 rounds into a head size target, with a 20 power scope and depending on weather conditions and all the other considerations,"
"He complains about the accuracy, but a well trained Marksman could likely make four inch groups at a thousand meters with standard ball"
Really? With ball ammo?
Heard at gun store, customer had taken a riflery course from an instructor who could demonstrate and teach hitting a 4" plate at 1000 yards. No doubt real target or precision gun and ammo, but how often?
