I've got an M45 gearbox with a hydraulic clutch and it's pretty much always done the same as your M47 - it catches a bit, like you were crashing the gears, when selecting reverse (it's also difficult to get into first when warm) like I said in an earlier thread - don't assume it has to be clutch adjustment, as hydraulic clutches self adjust (so that can't be the cause for me).

The increasing engine speed on rough terrain was possibly due to one rear wheel momentarily losing contact with the ground. When this happens it will spin freely (unless you have the limited slip diff) and allow the engine speed to rise - so probably unrelated to your gear selection issue.
