Golf balls at 50 yards, knock-down targets at 60 yards. Unsurprisingly, I enjoy more consistency with my .177 than my .22.

I'm still smacking them golfballs.. but now we have some at 85 yards. Had 4 in a row t'other day.
Good thing is with golfballs is they respond to how you hit them ie the swing back and forth if you centre hit em and right or left if you side hit em .
The four I hit were 3 in the middle. I'm taking some targets up the farm on a calm day ...really stretch it out. A lad I know hit an egg at 250 yards .....first shot.. TX200 .177 ...in the bloody middle!
Same lad hit our 1.25" bell at 70 yards 4 times in a row.....STANDING!! ...STANDING.
NB new shooters seeing this... do not use golfballs nearer than 65 yards ...ricochets are dangerous. Even at long ranges it is possible. ...
