IMO, since you are looking at long range, and for other reasons I'm not going to bother to enumerate as they have already been covered, you should simply go with a bolt capable of reaching about 1 moa, or an inch at 100 yards. You will need an accurate rifle to compensate for the inherent inaccuracy of a rifle. A 1 moa rifle can be expected to be off target by a radius of up to two inches, and if your own human error is added to that, instead of making a hit low in the lungs, you may wind up clipping a critter's intestines.
A person who lacks experience and skill is the person who needs an accurate, flat shooting rifle, to compensate for any shortcomings in ability.
