R1 accuracy

[Grmh2000]

Hello all, I am really considering getting a r1 in 30-06 at some point. I see a lot of comments on older threads talking about poor accuracy. I am very curious to see if anyone has any experience with the newer production r1 rifles and if so, does the reputation of poor accuracy hold true or is it more a thing of the past.

What will be the purpose of the rifle?

Hunting, I can accept 1-2 inch groups with an automatic but 3-4 inch plus groups I cannot.
