Is Georeference reliable?

The key is to set a local coordinate system. you can double check the process by using the great circle tool.

 

Sounds like you have it set to pseudo mercator which depending on your location will scale everything (image ) wrong.

 

The closer you are to a coordinate system and point on the earth the better you will be.

I have the same issue. I've built a site model from Google maps info, including topo. I just got a perimeter survey, To scale, and it seems my Geo referenced image is as the fellow last year said, about 115% larger than the survey. Which measures to scale. 
I didn't understand at all what your solution was. Could you explain again

My project is in Southern Oregon. 

 

Thank you
