For those who hunt long distance from home / gunsmithing, do you favour fixed scope mounts or use detachable models with a zerored back up scope ready to switch over?

If so, which makes are preferred?

What is the experience with QD scope mounts - how repeatable are they - 0.5 MOA? And is this normally good enough out to more sensible longer range, day 400 yards max?

I am thinking here along lines of mechanical engineering error stack approach.

Say rifle is genuine 1.25 MOA, if 0.5 MOA error introduced, but everything else on the money, would a 7 inch group, the size of a B5 envelope or there about ( rectangular dims) be adequate for most hunting?

I think it would be - heart lung vital area/ broadside aim.
