If a rifle consistency puts its pellets exactly where I've aimed them, and thus produces a small group at the ranges I need - I'm calling that rifle 'accurate'. More importantly by far, the people I'm writing for have the same working definition of 'accurate' as I do. In the real world, a rifle that can be relied upon to group its pellets consistently throughout its intended range will be known as an accurate rifle.
Accurate is as accurate does. 
If you don't know enough to judge - don't judge
