    My personal opinion is the coordinates should be as close as possible to the actual container.  If you want it to be hard to find then I suggest a great camo job.

    I normally take (3) long average readings directly on the container/hide.  I’m not sure why a person would list coords. that weren’t as accurate as possible?  After taking the readings, I generally walk away a minimum of 30 ft., wait a few seconds, and then back track to see which of the (3) readings gets me closest to the hide.   Another thing I’ve done recently is punch that ‘good’ reading into the smartphone app just to see how close the app puts me to the hide.  I never make adjustments based on the phone but, it’s interesting to see how close or how far off the mobile phone can put GZ.
