2 things:
1) according to Lactose a good figure for effective AP->DPS is 30%
Personally, I cut this in half for tanks, as their DPS is halfed as well.
2) You can shorten the macro to /cast Kill Command
/cast Steady Shot
/cast Lightning BreathIf you use a Steady-Instant-Steady cycle, you will have your auto-shot fire during the Instant GCD and you only need to time the first Steady of your next cycle after your last auto-shot. The instant usually being Scorpid, Multi or Arcane. You could also extend the cycle to include either one of these or all of these, but I prefer keeping it separate on Steady Shot only so I can spam it with BL/RF.

Have you considered the DPS bonus BM hunters give Ferocious Inspiration, the whole discussion of Lightning breath vs Gore is hardly relevant because the major advantage to ravagers is their attack speed and the fact that they are the highest dpsing pet. Imp Hunters mark is meh worth it leave it to the marks hunters to put up imo and put your points somewhere more useful. I personally raid BM and have raided with Survival hunters, survival is a viable spec but it all comes down to the player the shot rotation and what short of things your popping. Because if you pop Haste Pots every CD it'll up your DPS but you'll need an Spriest or something to keep your mana up. This affects and skews dps output. What I'm saying is I don't feel raid dps when comparing specs can be fair unless both specs have the same group make up and depending on how ideal it is dps with fluctuate generally. You also haven't incorporated people dying if people die your "DPS Contribution" drops. This is just my opinion hope you find it helpful ^_^

Well, this one doesn't work so bad for me:
survival/precision 0/27/34
It's a full raid buff spec.
One could wonder about
Combat Experience
but it seems that the 2% bonus is applied after the
Lightning Reflexes
so the bonus doesn't seem negligible to me.
Survival (0/25/36)
is my preferred Survival spec. I found the 2% agi not that great a bonus, and missing out on the extra two in
Thrill of the Hunt
meant I ran out of mana too quickly.
I go with
Imp. Arcane Shot
so I can do the perfect 3:2 macro:
#showtooltip Arcane Shot
/use 14
/castrandom Kill Command
/castsequence reset=6 Steady Shot, Arcane Shot, Steady Shot
/cast !Auto Shot
/script UIErrorsFrame:Clear();
I can just spam this key, I use an owl for the AP debuff but should probably get a Ravager or bring my Wind Serpent out of retirement.
