I have used this ability to great success though against both OST and OKW when they build a pak43. It is a great option for USF to remove this tricky unit and its always there, no need to rely ever on purely doctrinal off-map strikes (might have picked doctrine early) or fast/hard hitting unit orders (risky).
Other than that all I use the Major for is recon runs, forward retreat point and vet3 territory lockdown (OP as fuck on Langres!). Can't forget about getting bad manner pistol kills as well

Yeah the Major arty call down time is rather long and it can be inaccurate at times. Don't expect it to hit an mobile units unless your opponent is AFK.

About the recon run, does it matter in any way where you deply the recon run in the circle?
It seems to arrive at whatever location it feels like

Yeah I think it is random, but I've never really bothered to take notice of a pattern though. Just try always get your Major as close as possible to the point of interest since the Major does have an maximum call in range and you will find what you seek.
