It depends

Shooting position, distance and wind are critical factors. If I was shooting from a standing position the range would be less. Sitting or kneeling positions would extend my effective shooting range. We shoot the National Match Course at our gun club and I have definite thoughts of how well folks can and cannot shoot from different positions at known ranges. I would suggest that the more practice the shooter has the better. All the best...
