A lot of users (plinkers, barn hunters) of the former would be happy with 20-25mm at 30M (though I wouldn’t). The owners of the expensive stuff would want those figures at least halved, probably less.
Agreed and also a reason manufacturers could muddy the waters a touch regards under performance, so is a 50mm group at 50 yds from an Anshutz as bad as a 400mm group from a Kral or whatever. Thing is we buy rifles to hit targets, Id say rested inside with tje right pellet a pcp should put 10 pellets inside a 50p at 40y even a buget pcp
