(Notes)

Extreme spread was 20fps for the 37gn and 15fps for the 37.5.
Accuracy is probably better then a guy with a buggered shoulder and hand can do while shooting off the bonnet of a ute with a rolled up towl on the side off a hill.
The interesting bit is the recoil, it was really really pleasant to shoot, more of a push then a shove.
Its very much like a baby 9.3x62 now.
