I am learning, I was told @50 yards, 1/4 inch group is excellent and 1/2” group is good - very good,
I do not have the ability to set up my backyard at 100 yards.
I have a 4 inch, 6 inch and 8 inch AR500 gongs at 150yards, I cannot put paper targets up……
What is consider Excellent or Very good - good at 150 yards? 4 inch, 6 inch 8 inch? Repeatable?

1 MOA at 150 yards is 1.5 inches. However, 22lr gets worse and worse as you go further out. I'd say if you can do 2 inch groups at 150 yards that would be pretty solid. anything 1.5 or under would be really good for a 22.

This is also greatly depends on the rifle. From a factory or budget build I'd be happy with sub 2 inches at 150 yards. If it's a custom rifle you spent $3k on, I'd want it to shoot 1.5 or less at 150.

Assuming you`re shooting a .22 (? ). If by chance a 17HMR, it`ll ring ( well, sort of " tick " ! ) a 4" gong all day at 200 yards.

Based on my logged groups...

0.5 inches at 50 yards on a good day is normal
1.5 inches at 100 yards outdoors is expected.
3.25 inches at 150 yards isn't a surprise
and 4.5 inches at 200 yards with match 22lr cartridges.

This for 20+ shot groups including the shots you would want to call flyers.

I had a 6”plate set up at 185yds, I shot 8 rounds with 2 different ammo….CCI sv and Norma Tac, 7 were right around the mounting bolt, one was low, but the report from that round was very weak. Within 1.5” no problem, B14R. No wind and a pretty solid shooting day!
