Off the top of my head:
50m about .5-.75"
70m, 1"ish
100m, 2-3" can usually get 100% hits on 100x100mm plate
150m, can get all hits on a 200x200mm plate but 100x100 is iffy.
200m, 200x200 is iffy but 300x300mm is about 90% hits.

Well thanks for all the advice ,
I had a look at everything and more decided on a t bolt

10/22 with a trigger job
but after now owning a a rossi semi 22mag the 22lr may be worth looking at

Am using cci sub- hollows,

The area I shoot have horses so am restricted in what I can use

I second a 16" Tikka T1x. I think they're excellent value, great quality and super accurate with the right ammo

Just this past weekend I was able to get mine repeatably hitting a 310m gong which i was bloody stoked with

Cci sub hollow, the area I shoot has horses so limited as to what I can use

22 groups open up by a factor of 2.81each time you double the distance. Been proven by the US Lapua ballistics lab.
